Reviews of Life Smiles Dental Care
Debbi Brown
First, I have had some really excellent dentists and some not up to my expectations. My longtime college friend, Marla, recommended Life Smiles. First, my adult son went and came back with great comments. Then my husband, who never takes the time to go, but he finally did after my son's prompting. He was very pleased as well. So I just went today. From the new dentist (just out of the Army, bless his heart) to the excellent hygienist, and the wonderful front office staff, this was like coming home to my favorite dentist (now retired.) I think we have found a new dental care home for our family!
Kylie Koistinen
This place is awesome! They have such friendly staff. The receptionist, Doctor, and hygienist were all so awesome. I have a bad TMJD and they were so understanding and helpful in accommodating for it. I was in and out and they did a great job working with my schedule. They were all so nice and did a great job answering any of my questions. If you want a dentistry that really cares about their patients then I definitely recommend Life Smiles! Thank you for the lovely visit!
Beverley Keele
I’ve been going to Life Smiles Dental for the past 7 years and have always had a great experience. No one at this office has ever suggested unnecessary dental work be done to me. My regular hygienist Kelli is wonderful! Dr Schmidt and Dr Nielsen have both done great dental work on me. Dr Bishop did the exam after my cleaning today and I look forward to knowing him better, too. Office staff is great and friendly.
Cara Clancy
I called on a Tuesday with an urgent issue with my front tooth. I was able to be seen Wednesday morning by Dr. Nielson. He was so kind and professional. He took the time to explain what was going on with my tooth and gave me a few treatment options. He answered all of my questions and was able to get me back in that evening to put a temporary crown on and I will go back to him for the permanent one in a few weeks. I am very impressed by his work and his bedside manner. I would recommend him and his office to anyone in need of a dentist! Everyone in the office was warm and welcoming from the moment I walked in the door until the moment I left.

Highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care to everyone I Just had 2 cavitys filled and completed yesterday morning by Dr Jared Bishop DMD and Myra his amazing dental Assistant , As someone who suffers from severe dental anxiety I can honestly say Dr Jared Bishop DMD and his amazing dental assistant staff Myra have gone above and beyond with making my treatment and dental work at life smiles dental care painless and very comfortable. Dr Bishop is very gentle and has extensive training with treating patients that have severe anxiety and dental anxiety. Dr Bishop made me feel very comfortable at his office yesterday during my 2 cavity fillings appointment and he answered all of my questions and concerns before they started the work and he made sure I was very comfortable and relaxed before they started. They made sure everything would be 100% painless for me during my dental appointment.I didn’t even notice the dental local anesthesia injections that’s how painless it was. They made me feel like family at his dental office and all of his staff were very kind and were very friendly and were very welcoming towards patients who have high levels of dental anxiety. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care to everyone they are the best dentist here in the valley in phoenix will be giving them 5 Star Rating 😃
Also huge shout out to the amazing lovely Dental assistants and Registered Dental Hygienist nurses Olivia and Myra the Dental assistants and Registered dental hygienists are Olivia and Myra are amazing too. Olivia did an amazing job with my dental cleaning she made my teeth perfectly clean and look brand new and she taught me how to take better care of my teeth
Debbie Nassi
Awesome dental office, from the receptionist to the Dr…I saw Dr. Neilson. So friendly, kind, caring, compassionate people throughout!
I went in with an issue and never felt uncomfortable/nervous/scared. (Like how a Lot of people feel going to the dentist) I went back the following day for a cleaning with Jackie and Dr. Nielsen were both so awesome, so light with their hands! Explained what they were going to do before they went into my mouth. Gave me suggestions and helpful tools to use to keep my teeth healthy.
Overall, I would highly recommend Life Smiles!
Peggy Ross
I am a winter visitor and have been coming to Arizona for over 35 years. I don’t have a dentist here and I chipped a crown and needed attention. I found this office via my phone. I called, and was treated most amicably. They fit me in at an appointed time. When I arrived I was warmly greeted and only had to wait a few minutes. Dr. Schmidt was very warm and friendly as he took care of my dental problem. I was very pleased and can heartily recommend both him and the practice.
Monica
I’ve been a client of this practice for 6 years and even though I moved farther away from their location, I will continue to go back year after year. Why? They are that good! As a child I had a horrific dental experience which soured my outlook on dentistry. I was nervous trying a new dentist when I moved to AZ, but the staff, hygienists, and doctors were so professional they put me at ease. They created a plan to update my dental work and each time I returned to get more work done, it was a good experience. I’m very happy with my teeth now. If you’re looking for a Valley dentist, I highly recommend this practice.
Erin Jackson
My whole family goes to Life Smiles for our dental care. We love the staff here. They are all great. I have never particularly liked going to the dentist but I no longer dread it and I adore my dental hygienist, Hilary. They have seen us through, either directly or through expert referrals, wisdom teeth removal, bonding, cleanings, braces, gum graphs, fillings.
Veronica Aponte
Dr Jared Bishop is amazing!! I broke nearly half my front tooth off in a car accident and due to some health issues quiet some time passed before I was able to address it. With a job interview Friday I needed a miracle and that was Dr. Bishop. I have no insurance so they worked out a payment plan for me. I felt nothing...i actually fell asleep and my teeth look better than they did naturally. I highly recommend
Nicole Ruggiero
Honestly my favorite appointments are the dentist and a huge piece of that is because of everyone here. My family and I have gone to Life Smiles for as long as I can remember and Kelli has been my hygienist for just about as long. She is a SUPER STAR and everyone who knows me knows that. I cannot recommend it enough. They definitely take care of you here.
julia verso
This is by far the best dentist office in the valley. All of the staff, technicians, and Doctors are some of the friendliest people I have ever met! They each take their time to answer your questions and you never feel rushed out of an appointment. I can confidently say I will be a life long patient.
Krystin Simpson
Our whole family loves going to Life Smiles! They are the best! Always very professional and friendly. I always used to be nervous going to dentist appointments and cleanings but since going to Life Smiles that anxiety is gone. They are just simply wonderful.
Kate McCall
Doctor Paul is my uncle and he always steps up when someone in the family has a dental issue! Paul and his daughter brought me into the office on a Saturday night to bond a few of my teeth... and it was Thanksgiving weekend! I am so appreciative of him and my cousin. I could tell he truly cares about his work and only wants the best for his patients!
Zachary Brown
The hygienists and dentists always check for oral cancer every time. If they are concerned about getting you getting cavities they tell you what tooth’s to focus on. The hygienist Cassie was awesome. She was very welcoming to me today.
Leslie Babcock
Mary Ellen is the best dental hygenist in Arizona. My teeth always feel so nice and clean when she is done. She is very thorough and very professional. Both me and my boyfriend won't go anywhere else. Thank you Life Smiles. :)
AZ Woessners
I have been going to Life Smiles Dental for about 13 years. Everyone from the front office to the back are warm and welcoming. Kelli knows I am super sensitive and is always patient and accommodating! It’s like seeing an old friend every 6 months!
Sean Jurkowski
I can't say enough good things about Life Smiles. The clinical staff is top notch. They provide excellent care and make valuable recommendations. The front office staff is superb. They are competent, friendly, and professional. I have had experience with multiple dental practices and Life Smiles is next level. I just looked and they have a 5 star rating with over a thousand reviews! Well deserved in my opinion.
Joseph Boyd
Life Smiles is the best! Dr. Nielson has been my dentist for 13 years. The front staff is welcoming and makes it easy to check in. All of the hygienists are amazing I’ve been scheduling with Kelli for a while now and she’s awesome!
Najla Deeb
From the moment you walk into Life Smiles you are treated with such professionalism and warmth from every person. They are all so Amazing & Friendly. Will Highly Recommended them for all your Dental Care.
Sara Pace Jones
I started with Life Smiles a couple of years ago following a lifetime phobia of dentists. The care, compassion and professionalism of Life Smiles turned it around for me. My smile has never looked better and I’m keeping my appointments. They are great!
Elena Schroeder
I switched to Life Smiles upon recommendation from my husband who absolutely loved Dr. Nelson. My husband's fathar is a dentist himself with 40+yrs of experience and therefore you have to be a pretty good doctor to impress my husband. Well, Dr. Nelson did and now I am with them too! Lol
I love the entire staff! Ms. Valerie, Ms. Meg, Stephanie - all of them have been so kind and supportive ❤️ I am very happy with switching to Life Smiles.
Chuck Utterback
Life Smiles is the ultimate, professional dental care facility. They have a highly competent, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Olivia, was my hygienist today. I highly recommend her.
Kelsey Bowen
I had some pretty high anxiety and fear of the dentist that stemmed from a really bad childhood experience.
My mom came to Life Smiles with similar feelings and left saying shes beyond impressed with the staff and level of care they provide.
I decided to follow her lead after some extended time out of the dental chair and I am so happy I did.
The dentist is SO incredibly kind, and took the time to speak with me and understand what my goals were for treatment.
Want to make sure I save the best part for last which is the most incredible hygienist I’ve ever had. Cassie has single handedly taken away any and all of my fear and actually has me excited to stay on a regular schedule to take care of my teeth. I am so grateful. Thank you for helping my smile shine a bit brighter Cassie!!
Denise Bardon
As usual, my visit to Life Smiles was a very pleasant one. The staff is top notch, as well as all the dentists and front office always greets you with a warm welcoming smile. I'm sorry to say I don't know the name of the temp that cleaned my teeth, but she was very good and thorough! When Dr. Schmidt came in to check my teeth, he did not hesitate to adjust a challenge I was experiencing with my bite. LIFE SMILES DENTAL IS THE PLACE TO GO❣️
Dr. Taylor Burrowes
Great service, friendly staff, responsive and good client/staff communication leading up to and after the appointment. Dr. Nielson is very professional and helped make the experience totally comfortable. They approach their work professionally and take their time with patients to make the process feel organized, while also accommodating your specific needs.
2nd appointment: the hygienist was so good at cleaning my permanent retainer this time that I’m still shocked at how clear and clean my teeth are in the back problem areas weeks later! I actually want to go back every 3 months for a new cleaning!
Back again with another hygienist and she was great too. Plus they upgraded their waiting room for a nice luxurious feel. Very pretty.
Regards,
Taylor
Xavier Rufino
I've been going to Life Smiles Dental Care for a while now, and everyone there is so friendly, and the dental hygienist all terrific people. They make my teeth feel nice and clean when I leave.
M Fong
Great experience! Office staff is professional and friendly, dental staff are attentive and do their work correctly and efficiently, the hygenist was thorough and gentle, and the dentist was friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this clinic.
Fawn Staerkel
Wonderful team of dental professionals! Caring, gentle and very supportive team who make you feel special and valued. They are able to get you In quickly to be seen and the experience is great. 💯 recommend! …
Sheryl Chiaramonte
Well, from the minute I stepped through the door, I knew this was a very professional office. Everyone I encountered was all about superior customer service. I was walking to my car when finished with my first visit and said to myself "wow, I feel like I just left a dental office of the stars in Beverly Hills." Really deserves 10 stars.
Kim Gassner
Ok I adore these people. Kelly, who cleans my teeth, has been doing my teeth for over 20 years. She is wonderful. Also the doctors are kind and thorough. I appreciate the easy going nature of all of them. This is a great practice and I appreciate them all.
Stephen Bausemer
I always have a great experience at Life Smiles Dental. The dentists are all professional as well as the assistance, hygienists and the front desk staff. 5 stars all the way around, I had been to 3 other dentists prior to life smiles and this is my last stop in Phoenix/paradise valley/scottsdale area.
Norm Nielsen
The entire team at Life Smiles Dental Care exceeds my expectations. It has been years since I felt my dental needs and concerns were considered and addressed so I won't be having the same issues again. My only regret is that I didn't find these folks 3 years ago.
Ingrid Baysinger
I've had my teeth cleaned by Mya Tharp twice now and both times she was fantastic. She even remembers what we talked about the first cleaning which was six months ago! She is a truly a perfectionist when cleaning your teeth and very entertaining the whole time. You almost don't even know you're having your teeth cleaned!
Christian Schreifels
My family and I have been going here for years. We live about an hour away and still make the drive to Life Smiles. The front desk ladies are so polite and helpful. Everyone is efficient, friendly, and genuine. Mary Ellen is one of the best in the business.
Bill Scott
Dr. Schmidt is great dentist, professional and skilled. The bonus is the office staff is super organized and could not be more friendly. You get great care with great service!
Gail Rae Ehrler
Well back again to my favorite dentist. Never in a million years did I think those words would come out of my mouth. The moment I enter I am treated like I own the place. Dr Nielson’s assistant is so sweet and kind, always making sure I am doing ok. And Dr Nielson, he makes me feel like my mouth is the best he has ever seen. Makes it sounds like mine is the gold standard of mouths. Which I know is not true but its nice to hear. I love my Dentist and I love the staff that works there. Next up teeth cleaning, I am all a tingle..I am scheduled with gentle hands, that’s how I remember her.
jane lydon
I have been a patient of Dr. Schmidt for May years! I always have the utmost calm and happy experience with every appointment!! It starts when I walk into the office!! The staff is so inviting and happy and really care about me and all the patients that come through the door!! Thank You
Kelsey May
Had my first visit today. 10/10 experience from start to finish. Meg, receptionist, gave me the biggest hug welcome. Dr. Nielson, the dentist, calmed my nerves about the next steps in my smile restoration journey l. Cassie, the hygienist, made my teeth sparkly clean. So glad I decided to come here. Can’t wait to come back after my implant surgery to get my “smile back”
Conor Smyth-Small
The staff here were extremely efficient and very friendly. I chipped my tooth and was able to get a same day consultation followed by an immediate appointment. Would absolutely recommend! Thank you all.
Trixie Trixter
My appointment was pretty good. Everyone in the office was super nice. The hygienist even scraped off some of the glue residue that was left over from when I got my braces off a few weeks ago.
Scott Lundgren
Dr. Schmidt does a fabulous job he is kind and has a very caring team as well! I would highly recommend his dental care! 5 stars! Connie Lundgren 😁 …
Janis Wilsterman
I highly recommend Life Smiles for anyone looking for a dentist! Special thanks for all you have done for me over the years to Hilary, Mari, Janet, Heidi, Keri, Dr. Schmidt, Dr. Nielson and everyone else. (I know I am missing some names.). I appreciate your professionalism, your kindness, and your compassion!
Bridget Mitchell
This office impressed me so much! You all are so professional, so clean, so thorough, so kind and close to my house. Best dental experience I have ever had.
Jim Broenen
I have been seeing Dr Nielson for years. Had a few procedures done over the last couple of weeks. Everyone in the office is very professional, timely, concerned with comfort and, very important for me, no pain. Definitely recommend.
Siboney Palafox
My first appointment here and I already loved it!, everyone is amazing and they truly care about any concern you may have and they make sure you feel comfortable, definitely coming back! ❤️
Luke Brandemuehl
After decades of never visiting a dentist office, I got married, and as a family we all started “Fresh” with Life Smiles … years later now, all 6 of us Absolutely Love the employees, their skilled care and professionalism as well as the comfort of the facilities!!!
Stephanie Mullenmeister
I have been a patient here for many years and Maryellen has always taken such excellent care of me. I know with Dr. Nielson and Dr. Schmidt I am in the best hands with my dental care.
alex bellone
If I could give 10 stars I would! The entire staff was super friendly, very knowledgeable, and made me feel super comfortable the entire time! I highly recommend them! You won’t regret it!!
Rafaela Daguio
The staff is always so nice, friendly, and accommodating! Love that I can communicate and book appts via text! All the doctors there are so thorough and caring! Highly recommend! - Rachelle
Weezy Jay
This has been the most pleasant dental experience for me. From front desk to the dentists, I finally found the dental office that I want to continue to visit for as long as possible.
Mandy Mckelvey
This was the best dental appointment I have ever had. Typically, getting my teeth cleaned is anxiety inducing but my hygienist was so sweet and even allowed me to keep the weighted vest from my ex rays on during the exam as a comfort. Dr. Schmidt is calm and good natured person, very enjoyable to be around and thorough. Lastly, the front office staff are phenomenal ladies. I’m referring they to everyone I can because of how infrequent I come across excellent service like this.
Thank you so much for what you do!
Jamie Squires
I have been considering to switch too a new dentist and I think I found a great office. Called twice to ask questions and schedule an appointment and the girls who answered where just amazing. They treatment me with so much respect and kindness, which I really appreciated. Can't wait to visit this office and see how wonderful everything is!
Update:
Great service and friendly staff. Everything is up front and the office is very clean and well decorated. The staff takes their time to really get to know you and your needs. There was zero rush during the consultation. Dr. Schmidt was super welcoming and helpful. He did not recommended unnecessary services. I also loved the meeting with the financial coordinator to plan out your treatment. Having a little room to sit down and make out a plan was great. Thanks to everyone at this office for your amazing service! Can't wait to make this place our dental home
Update: Still amazing. Did you make an appointment yet? You will no lt regret it!
Update: Still a customer and loving it. Kelli
is an amazing hygienist!!
Update Again: IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A DENTIST PICK THIS PLACE. YOU WILL NEVER BE DISAPPOINTED. Kelli is the absolute best hygienist!!! 💌💌
Cheyanne F.
I've gone to Life Smiles for years now, and this is the best dentist office EVER. I have found my hygienist, Kelli, to be the best fit for me. She's super amazing, sweet, skilled and incredibly professional. As well as very personal - she remembers things about me and will often bring up things I told her at my past appointments, which are normally months apart. It makes me feel incredibly seen and appreciated, and it brings immense happiness. She's also very knowledgeable, and won't hesitate to answer any and all of my questions. Honestly, all of them are amazing. I usually also see Dr. Schmidt, and he's always a delight to talk with. I haven't had any major work done other than cleanings really, but this practice makes even the most nerve wracking and uncomfortable moments incredibly at ease and calming. The front office ladies are absolutely incredible too - coming in and them greeting me BY NAME and a warm smile is just so nice. Again, it makes me feel seen & appreciated. And it makes it feel very personal and its then that you KNOW they definitely care about their patients. I would recommend this practice to anyone and everyone, and will always have nothing but good things to say.
Josh Thomas
Great visit today with Jackie and Dr. Schmidt. Always a great experience when I visit for my routine cleaning and check ups. Beautiful office and wonderful staff!
Robert Schorsch
Best Dental care in Phoenix with a great environment and great service. Hillary is my hygienist and she is the absolute best!
Guillermo “G!” Hernandez
The staff here are friendly, quick, and very kind. They are all about communication and keeping you up to date on appointments and other such things. The dental assistants are also friendly, very knowledgeable and great chair-side manners. Dr Schmidt (the only dentist I've seen) has been incredibly warm and kind and really enjoys working with people. All that PLUS the amazing views out the windows of Camelback Mountain WHILE IN THE CHAIRS? You just can't beat 'em!
Jennifer Bradley
I shared a review after my cleanings and this place was amazing. I have been a patient coming up on a few years. Today I had to get a few cavities filled,so it was my first experience with the dentist getting some work done. I came here because I have been looking for a dentist office that listens. I have a lot of anxiety and mouth pain/sensitivity and even cleanings can be nerve racking and painful. Dr Nielson is very genuine and explains everything before ,during and after your visit. The best thing is I didn't feel a thing ,not even the numbing poke. I am so happy to have found a great dentist office after so many years of searching. The front desk staff, hygienists and dentists are all amazing!! I live 30 miles away from the office and it is 100%worth the drive .
Rain
Life smiles has been our family dentistry for the past 10 years. My husband, I and our three children. It's a very friendly - family oriented place. Everyone always remembers you by name. I trust both doctors they are great! Everyone that works there is great. We have never had any issues at life smiles. Let me say it is very comforting to know you have a place where you don't have to worry, you know you're being taken good care of.
Jaclyn Campbell
I love this dental office! I’ve been going here for probably 8+yrs now and the whole office is outstanding! From the front desk, to the hygienists, to the docs, we get great care and treatment all the way around. I recommend them to anyone I know looking for a dentist. Once I established care here, I stopped dreading going in for dental care. I actually look forward to going in because I know the staff and they know me (and my husband). Highly recommend!
Jennifer Clark
This is the kind of dental office that you want to go to. The staff is amazing! They do everything to make you comfortable and also check insurance and write out quotes for dental work. All around they are probably the best dental office I’ve ever been to. My sister worked in dentistry for years and worked for a great dentist -I never thought any place could be better…
You’re good!!!
Hillary does an amazing job and makes it fun as well!
I’ve never used “fun”associated with the Dentist ever!!
Thanks to all of you at Life Smile’s Dental!!
Celine Cruz
Staff are awesome and very friendly. I’ve seen Dr. Schmidt before he’s very professional answers all my questions and explained everything in the a way that I can understand. And Maya is my hygienist she’s amazing very throughout and gentle always making sure that am comfortable. Already recommended them to someone I know and will recommend them again if someone asked for a good dental clinic. And not to forget Mari the one that you can count on if you have any questions and will help in any way possible.
Debra Keown-Coffey
I was so impressed at the empathy of the dentist after explaining my hesitation about dentistry. The office and staff are really amazing. I can’t wait to start my dental work with them.
Christopher Taylor
Life Smiles demonstrates great customer service. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. There level of professionalism you don’t find at other Dentist office. I trust and listen to
What the Hygienist, and Dr. have to say, as I feel they have my best interest at heart.
Luz Markley
This Dental practice is amazing: from the office staff to the Drs. They did everything they should have: I was pleasantly greeted when I arrived, paperwork was easy to fill out. The whole staff was caring and compassionate (I did have a bit of anxiety- but didn’t need it there). They have great ratings but wow!! They are really fantastic! I get to go back: but now I know it’s nothing to fear or stress out about! Dr. Schmidt is AWESOME! Thank you!
Amber Roberts
I absolutely LOVE Life Smiles Dental Care. I have been coming here for years and I cannot fathom going anywhere else. I have recommended coworkers and they have also had pleasant experiences. From the moment you walk in the door to the moment you leave, you are personally greeted and spoken to by friendly people.
Doris Lederer
Dr. Nielson's practice was recommended to me by a neighbor who. is a retired dentist. I have been very pleased with Life Smiles. The office is very efficient and friendly. Other members of my family are patients now also. I definitely recommend!
Linda Harper
I can’t be the only patient who looks forward to coming to this office! The staff treats you like a treasured family member and the service is the best. My Hygienist Kelli could not make the experience any better. Thank you all at Life Smiles.
John Gibson
We love this office - friendly and efficient, it is consistently a great experience! Everyone is excellent in what they do. And personally, they are really wonderful people who care very much about their patients. Highly recommended!
Nadine Canas
Hands down the best dentist office. Besides being absolutely knowledgeable & professional they are friendly, kind & down to earth. My entire family are patients. I refer all my friends.
Kendall Remley
I love Life Smiles! The best dental office I've ever been to. The staff makes you feel so loved and like they really know you and care about you. I will absolutely refer everyone to Life Smiles. In fact I just signed up for the family plan so my kids and fiancé can start going there! 🙌 …
Jared Jacobsen
Went in for a routine cleaning and had a great experience with my dental hygienist Cassie. She's a good conversationalist and was gentle with my gums. Thanks!
Serene Vivadelli
I have been going to Life Smiles for the last 7 years. It is a very welcoming environment, the hygienist and staff know who you are and take a few minutes to catch up prior to the check up. I love my dental hygienist, Jackie. She is very professional, warm and welcoming.
I appreciate Dr. Schmidt's conservative approach. He shows me my x rays and explains why I need work or where I can wait. I never fell like he is selling me services, which is something one finds at dental offices now.
I would highly recommend Life Smiles to anyone for themselves or their children.
Kristen Souza
Great experience working with Dr Rick on my daughters tooth bonding. Teeth look amazing. Thanks Life Smiles
Mark Loposky
This place is the best. One of the dental hygienist Mary-Ellen is the best I have ever be too. The other hygienist’s are just as amazing as well. Dr. Nielson is my dentist and I absolutely think he is amazing, again so are the other's as well. From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted by the friendliest staff that really make you feel welcome. Everyone in this office honestly cares and takes such good care of their patients. I have been going to Dr. Nielson and Mary-Ellen for so many years and will continue with them. The office is absolutely beautiful and so clean. You cannot go wrong with this place for any dental needs.
Mark Loposky
Vicki Stinson
THE best dental practice I've ever visited, bar none! The staff is terrific, caring and competent. Highly recommended.
Mzl Zml
The care and treatment I've received from Life Smiles is undeniably the best. Dr. Schmidt and the entire staff are the absolute best. They are carrying, compassionate and over all very professional.
Barb R
MaryEllen is awesome! I despise visiting the dentist (no offense), but this place makes it better than any other spot I’ve gone to. I’m a hard core fan! Thank you!
Kenny Thomas
The DDS and DMDs here very professional and nice. All the lovely lady assistants are sweet and beautiful. I'm very happy. With everything they have done for my smile and confidence. Being 57 year old male. You need to have a great smile and great teeth. To hope you have a chance. With any lady.
😁 …
Corey Wright
The staff at Life Smiles made me feel welcome instantly, they are professional and prompt. Once I finished the paperwork I waited maybe 10 mins before I was taken back for the appointment. During the exam the Dr was super nice and courteous. My wife refuses to go to any other dentist and will only go to Life Smiles. I have found my dental care home.
Jen C
This has been my Dentist since Dr Nielsen first took over (2007?2008?) and they have gotten better & better. Working in the dental field myself for 15 years I have such a high level of expectations of service, clinicians, & experience. Every visit is amazing. I personally have a lot of dental anxiety and Kelli has been the best hygienist to ever clean my teeth! I look forward to my 6 month appointments because of her! The team in the front office has always been professional, courteous, & works hard with a smile on their face. I needed help rescheduling my appointment & Keri work diligently to contact me for sooner openings that would work with my complicates work schedule. The last few years I’ve been seeing Dr Schmidt and he’s been great! I appreciate his approach to be sure my teeth are healthy, while not needing aggressive with what dental treatment he recommends. I cannot say enough good about this office and will always refer everyone to them!!!
Chris Rios
Had my 1st visit with Life smiles Dental Care. First impression are very important to me and they succeed in every way possible. The first thing you notice walking in is a very clean and nice office. Then you are greeted by the front office who are very nice and welcoming. I didn’t have to wait long to be seen which was a plus. I saw Dr. Schmidt who was very professional and answered all my questions which made me comfortable. Looking forward to my next visit would highly recommend anyone!
Ted Wilson
Life Smiles is hands down the best dental office I’ve ever been to. The entire staff is very professional. They are also so kind and always have stories to tell about cool adventures that they’ve done. For the first time in my life, I actually look forward to going to the dentist!!
Chris Fox
First visit, new patient, baby boomer. I've experienced the gauntlet when it comes to dentists, I've spent decades in the Hospitality industry, I've never had a better experience in a dental office than my experience at Life Smiles on Shea in Phoenix. They were personable, caring, thorough, empathetic to your needs, accommodating and just overall GOOD PEOPLE!
I actually look forward to my next visit.
You were all excellent, thank you for a great experience.

We have been to several different dentist offices in the valley but this office and the staff are truly exceptional and remarkable. They are friendly, professional and have their craft figured out unlike others. From scheduling, punctuality, billing and the quality of work, whole office attitude and friendliness are the best I have ever experienced. There is a reason why they are highly rated and recommended. Do your self a favor, give them a try and you will see the difference.
Makayla Babish
Always a great and calming experience! I’ve loved all the girls that have helped me maintain healthy teeth and gums!
Alien Blood
Everyone here was fantastic! The hygienist, Mya was amazing. She told me what she was going to do every step of the way which was very helpful as I have severe anxiety about the dentist, not even anxiety but flat out panic attacks! They will do just about anything to make you as comfortable as possible without making you feel invalid or silly.
My biggest complaint was that they messed up my hair because they did such a good job cleaning my teeth! 😉
Stan Robertson
We have always had great care at Life Smiles! The people are very caring and seem genuinely concerned for their patients. My wife has Alzheimer’s and they treat her like a VIP! It’s wonderful to see how great both of us are treated there, thus we are very satisfied with their efforts. Very competent people all thru the office!
Monique Sayre
I have been coming to Life Smiles since we moved to the Phoenix area nearly 10 years ago. Kelli is my hygienist and has also become a good friend over the years. Both doctors have done work on me and my family and they are both absolutely wonderful. The front staff is always very helpful, polite, and always accommodating. There is not ever one negative thing I could possibly say about this office and its entire staff. Everything has always been so positive and the work is exceptional. I have recommended this office to several friends as well. If you need a new dentist, try them! I promise, you will be so very glad that you did!
Kari Van Winkle
I had been slacking the last few years on finding a good dentist in my neighborhood. Finally made an appt at Life Smiles and so glad I did! The entire team is super nice, you can tell they genuinely care and want you to be comfortable. The office is very modern, clean and high tech, and they offer a lot of support to alleviate any nervousness you might have. Looking at Camelback mountain while you’re getting your teeth cleaned is an extra bonus! I’ll be a lifelong patient with them now.
Jody Levitt
I just love my dental hygienist Kelli - shes why I continue to go to this dentist office. She's the best!!! She may give me bad news, but she does it so nicely - love Dr Smidt mannerism and it was nice meeting their newest doc - their both very calming. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. Heidi is also a sweetheart. Kelli is the only reason I do come - she's the best!!!
Whitney Williams
Dr. Nielson, Mya, and the entire Life Smiles team are phenomenal. I went to Dr. Nielson four years ago to have my poorly-shaded lumineers from another dentist replaced with veneers. The results exceeded my expectations. The two veneers are a perfect match to my natural surrounding teeth. I’ve been a loyal patient ever since. I am grateful to have found such a detail-oriented, friendly, and thorough dental team. I recommended Life Smiles to my parents and they, too, agree they’re the best!
Jessie Gillman
Dr. Neilson and staff are amazing!! Extremely friendly and understanding. Dr. Neilson described my treatment plan in detail and made me feel very comfortable with going forward. I am an anxious dental patient and the entire staff was attentive and reassuring.
JoAnne Nichols
Kelli is the best! She is gentle and thorough when cleaning my teeth. I look forward to seeing her not just for the cleaning, but for the conversation. She is fun and interesting to talk to. We moved to Chandler but I will always come back to Life Smiles for all my dental work. Everyone is simply wonderful!
Jessica Holemon
My husband and I just love Life Smiles. We have been going there for years and never plan on leaving. ❤️
Lisa Lane
My regular hygienist wasn’t available so I saw Maya. My teeth are gleaming. She’s a perfectionist. She also gave me a tip on how to reduce plaque. Never heard it before so gave it a try. Maya is a gem, thrilled that I met her.
Hubby and I have used LIFESMILES for many years. Their service is impeccable, professional and friendly. I actually like going to the dentist.
April 2023- I have complete trust in Dr. Nielson. Cannot imagine going to someone else. He’s conservative but honest. If I have a problem he outlines options. I think I will keep him.
Cypress Hawk
I’ve been going to Life Smiles for at least 5 years. Their location with views of the mountains from your dental chair are unbeatable. The care and service is top notch from absolutely everyone in the office. It is obvious they run a tight ship and deliver nothing short of excellence. I moved across the country and still came to Life Smiles for dental care on my trips home. Superb.
Jennifer Hutton
The most thorough and professional cleaning I’ve ever had. MaryAnne takes great care with my teeth and guns as I have a high degree of sensitivity. My teeth are the cleanest they’ve ever been! All of the office staff is friendly and welcoming. Love this office!
Cameron Dietrich
I’ve been to several dentists in the Valley and Life Smiles is by far the best I’ve worked with. They are all so friendly and gentle. You don’t usually go to the dentist for the conversation, but it’s honestly the best part. I always leave there feeling great. They do amazing work!
Jill Thompson
We love this dental office and have been going for years. Dr. Nielsen is the best and the hygienist are great. We love Mary Ellen and all of the staff. They make going to the dentist, easy!
Evan Burkel
Keri and the other very welcoming front staff were amazing. Very welcoming experience.
I had Theresa as my dental assistant. She provided a good first patient experience as well.
Dr. Schmidt was fun to talk to and made great conversation, making you feel as a part of the Life Smiles family. He was also very knowledgeable/professional and took the time to explain the pictures/X-rays as well as offering good dental hygiene tips.
Maryellen did a great job cleaning my teeth. She was also very professional and offered great advice for cleaning your teeth at home, etc. It was fun talking to her about both of our travels and you can tell that she is very passionate about what she does.
Cari Payne
This is the nicest dental office I've ever visited. The staff up front are always friendly in person and over the phone. Rescheduling or sorting out payments has never been a problem.
I've had 3 hygienists work on my teeth and all 3 are great; they are gentle, thorough, and detailed. Both Dr. Schmidt and Nielsen are the same way: gentle, thorough, and detailed. I would recommend Life Smiles for sure!
Sue Dahnert
I had my teeth cleaned today by Jackie. I asked that they do an excellent job of cleaning my teeth but to be gentle and not to use so much water to where I gag. Jackie did just What I asked. she was perfect in every way.
Emily Leavitt
I’m not one to write reviews; however, I wanted to take the time to say that I’m beyond impressed with the team at Life Smiles! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I immediately felt welcomed as I walked into the office. Their teamwork, communication, and kindness stand out to me. Looking forward to my next visit!
Anna Garner
This is by far the best dentist I’ve been to in Arizona. Always very welcoming. And friendly. The work they do is Amazing. Always referring people I know to go to this office. Very Happy when I leave there. Recommend them.
Paula Campbell
If you are looking for a good adult dentist, look no further! Life smiles has amazing employees and dentist who do beautiful work. I have been a patient for over ten years and I trust them immensely. My adult daughter had to have a crown on a tooth that shows in her smile line toward the front and the work they did was absolutely stunning, you can’t even tell it’s a crown. Mya is the hygienist I have been seeing for about a year and a half and she is diligent and hard working making my teeth super clean while still being so sweet and engaging.
Jessica De Santiago
Very clean, super friendly! He helped me eased my anxiety so smoothly!!
Dr Schmidt really deserves to be in every billboard in Phoenix! He is simply my new favorite doctor !
Charis Coe
This dental practice is Amazing, every worker I’ve met here whether it be front desk, dental hygienist or dentist have been knowledgeable and welcoming. Mya was joyful, had great bedside manner, explained things thoroughly and was very knowledgeable and excellent at her job. She made sure to be extra cautious around sensitive areas. After having not the best experience at a prior dentist, coming to Life smiles has been a breath of fresh air, they make sure to ask how they can best help you at your appointment, they talk to you about how medical health affects dental health, they provide education and options-allowing patients to make educated decisions. Life smiles dental care is a dental office that, because of the team, helps provide a calm and welcoming experience. I highly recommend this dental practice.
Chad Lockner
This office is amazing, professional, and just a place that makes you feel welcome. It also has a great view of the sunset.
Alisa Beyer
January 2023. Cassie was a new hygienist for me. She was kind and very communicative. Cleaning was thorough and less than an hour. Front staff is attentive.
I take my 4 kids here and we get them all done in one day. Sometimes two hygienists at the same time. I come by myself for my cleanings. :)
July 2021. Quick cleaning with Maryellen. Efficient and gave some good tips. In and out on time.
From Feb. 2020. All hygienists are great. Today had Maya. She was graceful and considerate. Had kids with me for my appointment. They sat in room and watched TV while I was seen. Friendly staff. Great cleaning.
October 2020. Had Maya again. Originally booked Kelly. Office great with communication to share of staff change. Maya shared good tips and even a prime deal for a water pick that would come in handy for the family. Efficient visit.
Heather Timme
I’ve been going to this office for a few years now. From the first visit, everyone from the front desk to the dentists are so kind & personable. My hygienist, Kelli, is awesome & always makes the experience pleasurable. I would recommend this dental office to anyone.
Fiorela Valcarcel
Always leave Life Smiles feeling like a queen! The staff is very friendly, my appointments are managed timely, and the clinic is a welcoming space.
Kalia Pang
The whole team at LifeSmiles is magnificent. Always feel taken care of when I visit, especially by Kelli.
Stephanie Mier
What an amazing team! I felt like I got the red carpet treatment from the moment I walked in! My consultation was on time, very detailed and provided so many options for what I want! Can’t wait to get started and so excited for the expertise and my new smile!!!
Kady Eglseder
I was looking for a new dentist and referred her by a friend. My first appointment was a routine cleaning and everything was absolutely amazing! From the moment I checked in to the second I left, every staff member was welcoming, kind, and friendly. The level of service provided by Dr Nielsen and the dental assistants (I had Jackie for my cleaning) was also wonderful. They were both thorough and gentle with my teeth. It’s so refreshing to have found a place that sincerely wants to take good care of their patients, I’ll be back for my next cleaning in 6 months!
Gary Andersen
Mary Ellen does a fantastic job with my teeth, she is always up to date on all the new technologies. Felt very safe in the office! Social Distancing at the finest!! Dr. Nielsen is the finest!
greg quinn
My visit today was a first visit. From the minute I called to inquire about help for my smile, until the minute I walked out of that office, I felt a real sense of hope. Everyone was so kind and understanding of my needs and made me feel quite at ease. I truly believe that this will be experience of a lifetime when all is said and done. Stay tuned for future details...
lauren sin
The best dentist office! Everyone is also so nice and welcoming and the services make getting your teeth cleaned actually enjoyable. So many of my friends don’t like going to the dentist because it hurts and that’s never been the case for me at Life Smiles! My dental cleanings are something I truly look forward to!
Upward Haus
Life Smiles is like no other dentist office. The staff are so attentive, caring, proactive, gentle and kind people. Ive had a fear of dentists my whole life and the staff have gotten me to never fear dental treatment. Ive had some great results and my smile has never looked better. Can't recommend them enough!
Noemi Sorto
I love Life Smiles Dental Care. Staff is always friendly and welcoming! Loved how they called me by my name right away! Made me feel special, and I just love Megan she’s so sweet! I went in for cosmetic work on my upper teeth and I couldn’t be any happier! I’m so happy with my results! Highly recommend Dr.Nielson he guided me through this process and I couldn’t be any happier!!
Ashley Seely
Mari at the front was amazing, welcoming, friendly and informative. And Mya was the best. She was patient, funny and calmed my nerves. They both made sure everything with my visit ran smooth and kept me comfortable. I will only be using Mya for my cleanings and working with Mari on coordinating my treatments going forward. Thank you ladies for a great dental experience almost as good as the spa.
Eric Hines
The staff at Life Smiles is so friendly and great at what they do! I have had such a positive experience since I’ve gotten my check ups and routine cleanings. They are also very upfront on potential charges, including what insurance providers can or cannot cover.
Marian Barnett
WOW! My teeth feel amazing! Dr. Nielson was professional and nice. The office was clean, organized and prompt. Every staff member was gracious and helpful. My hygienist, Carrie, was so sweet and thorough!! I highly recommend this office to everyone.
Jessie Marman
As someone with a healthy amount of dentist anxiety, I had lived in Phoenix for several years before I went to life smiles at the recommendation of multiple friends. This office rocks—they are so accessible anytime you need them (once I texted them in the early hours of the morning when an old filling came out and got a very speedy reply!), the hygienists are all kind, professional, and compassionate, and both Dr. Schmidt and Dr. Nielson take excellent care of their patients. It’s been several years now and I have become the type of person who voluntarily goes three times a year—and I can only credit life smiles with the shift.
Scarlett Murray
I first went to see Dr. Schmidt about a week ago. We decided it would be best to extract two of my teeth, as they were pretty bad. I have some dental anxiety… I don’t like to use the word hate, but you catch my drift! They assured me that I had many options to feel comfortable during my visit. I opted for the oral conscious sedation and I’m so glad I did! This morning I got two teeth pulled, and I didn’t feel a thing! It went by so fast! At 28 years old this is the FIRST dental office I’ve gone to where I’ve felt comfortable and wasn’t riddled with anxiety. From my call to set up my appointment, their attentiveness and follow ups via text, going over my payments etc, the dental assistants, the actual dentist… everything and everyone was 5 stars. I am a person who does struggle with a mental illness that has definitely played a role in me overlooking my teeth. They’re pretty bad and I am super embarrassed! But Dr. Schmidt and his team didn’t make me feel bad about it at all! I am so happy with my experience here and it has completely changed the way I look at going to the dentist. I am looking forward to my dental journey with Dr. Schmidt and am actually EXCITED for my next appointment!!! Thank you Life Smiles Dental Care ❤️❤️❤️
Paula
I am 65 1/2 and have NEVER experienced any care that comes close to the High quality & flexibility of this dental office. Everyone that works there is SO friendly yet professional and they REALLY CARE!!! (I know that sounds cheesy) If more businesses were managed like this one, we might not have Road Rage!!!!
My teeth are Pretty & Happy now!!!!
Denise Bismore
Everyone is incredibly friendly with excellent customer service! All of the dental work snd cleanings are done first class. Newly remodeled state of the art equipment with pricing that is reasonable especially if you join as a member.
Highly recommend life smile
Jonathan Gustafson
By far, the best dental office I've ever been to! The staff are always very friendly and attentive. The entire team provides extensive education in a way that's easy to understand. They walk you through every part of your procedure and answer all of your questions. Scheduling is super convenient too! I would highly recommend this dentist office to friends and family and look forward to future visits!
Stephanie Reeves
Everytime I walk into Life Smiles Dental Care everyone is very warm and welcoming. Since I was a child, I’ve always had anxiety going to the dentist. However, the past year that I’ve been going to Life Smiles, I don’t get nervous anymore. They're friendly, efficient, and most important…my teeth look great! Thank you!
Katherine Nilsen
I came as a recommendation from a family member and loved it. Very kind staff and great dentist. Dr. Nielsen stayed late to help me get some cavities filled before I left town. Everyone is kind and welcoming and I was very pleased with my teeth cleaning and fillings!
Ruby Santiago
I would like to thank everyone who made my experience in this office warm and welcoming. Everyone was kind and helpful. I cannot say enough good things about this office they are GREAT!
Bette Hamann
Life Smiles is located in a beautiful spot, nothing like a great view out the windows while getting dental care! Professional staff, excellent communication, willing to work with people to reschedule when needed. The remodeled office is really nice!
Chad Nutsch
Today was my first visit, these guys are great. I see exactly why they have 5 stars. This will be my dentist in AZ from now forward.
Veronica Pasos
Got my teeth cleaned by Mya today! She is great! Very friendly as everyone else there. I love going here and would highly recommend it to anyone!
Sherrie Fulton
Olivia was caring, thorough, and efficient. She answered all of my questions and made my visit a pleasant experience.
Steve Hyatt
As with previous visits, the reception was friendly yet purposeful. Hillary welcomed me like long lost family and after the required catching up and small talk, got down to business. She is outgoing, intelligent and professional. Keep her.
As usual, near the end of my cleaning the dentist popped in to give me a short once over. Also professional, hes simply not my type. Y'all are outstanding from the receptionists to the Doctors. Don't let it go to your heads
Toni McCall
I visited their office as a new patient today and couldn’t be more pleased. From the moment I opened the door, when I got a warm and friendly hello right away, I felt that this visit was going to be pleasant. My interest was in bonding as well as Zoom whitening and I will definitely be going to them for both. The Dentist and all his staff are exceptional. Very Knowledgeable, very personable, everything I hoped to find and most certainly did. I’d highly highly recommend for those of all ages, they give you options with your dentistry and completely explain everything it will entail. The office follows safety and sanity guidelines which really put me at ease in a setting that can be intimidating to begin with.
So Across the board I would certainly strongly recommend to any and all of your dental needs!
Thank You for A Great Experience!!
Luke Brandemuehl
Best dental experience of my life. Our family of six thought that the customer service was great, the doctors and staff are kind and extremely knowledgeable, they’re not overly pushy toward ‘sales’, and they have a great Mountain View to boot! We will all be back in six months with gleaming smiles on our faces!
Update: Family follow ups have continued for over a year now … never changing dentists so long as we call Phoenix home. Their hiring process seems to be one that should be modeled after.
Michael Dorval
I’ve been going to Life Smiles for a few years now. I always have pleasant experiences with the most up-to-date equipment. I never feel pressured into services, but I get honest opinions to make decisions by. I highly recommend them.
El Lete
Love this place! Everyone is so caring. Finally a dental office that understands the needs of the client. I actually enjoy my appointments. My “Mr. Smiley” (Dr. Schmidt) dentist makes certain that my dental needs are addressed and is very thorough. Front staff a caring class act! Carrie you educate me as you work and you rock!
Andrew Dotterweich
Another excellent appointment at Life Smiles! Very friendly and courteous, with a very skilled hygienist staff!
Brent Williams
I’m a big fan of Life Smiles, I started going here in 2014, after a different dentist tried and failed three times within a month to repair a chip in my front tooth. Drs. Nielsen and Schmidt are both very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable when it comes to anything involving dental care. The office staff are attentive, friendly, and keep a very good schedule. I would recommend this office to anyone looking for quality dental care.
Lauren Sin
My family and I have been coming to Life Smiles for 10+ years now and they are the BEST! I actually look forward to my dental appointments and I always leave with my teeth feeling so clean. Everyone is so welcoming. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a great dentists and hygienist!
Alex Woodside
The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Had a great first visit and looking forward to future visits!
Cynthia Berry
Life Smiles is the best dentist office. They are professional, nice, and accommodating!
Staff.Hilary Wilson
I absolutely cannot say enough to recommend Life Smiles! I have major dental anxiety and they are very sensitive to that. The front office staff is friendly and kind. Both dentists are amazing and all the dental technicians are too! Seriously, I just appreciate them so much.
Sean Herd
The staff at Life Smiles is amazing! Every interaction with the front desk is so friendly and personal, the dentists are consummate professionals and Hilary is simply the best dental hygienist I’ve ever been seen by. Even when we moved out of state for the year we scheduled vacations to Phoenix around our dental appointments. Seriously. I highly recommend this practice to anyone that desires the best dental care available.
Savanna Koss
Highly recommend! Office is clean, staff is friendly, and the service is above and beyond. I’ve been coming here for about 3 years now and it’s been the best decision I’ve made. I’ve already recommended life smiles to multiple friends of mine and all will say the same- best dentist ever!
Adela Lydia
I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care for all your dental needs. The staff and doctors are very professional and kind, they make you feel like you are their only patient!
Daryl Zee
Love this dental practice. Mya, my hygienist, is super thorough, very friendly and professional. Our entire family has gone to Life Smiles for years.
Kelly Vernon
I hadn’t been to the dentist in years and had quite a few issues on my first visit. The doctors were wonderful and took excellent care of me and got me back into great shape. I haven’t had any issues with my teeth for quite a while now and am so grateful I found Life Smiles. I’ve recommended to many friends and family members already!
GMF
I absolutely love the entire staff @ Life Smiles Dental 🦷 Care!!! They’re so courteous, helpful & kind & compassionate. Today Mary Ellen cleaned my fangs. Dr. Neilson did my exam today. Both Dr Neilson & Dr. Schmidt are awesome. Keri is cool as ice water. I highly recommend this office👍🏼.
09/21/22 Back again today for my check up, cleaning, exam, xrays and a tooth repair. This office is THE BEST- the ENTIRE staff is phenomenal. The office is gorgeous & you absolutely cannot find better dr’s in the valley. I had the pleasure Jackie cleaning my teeth & Dr. Schmidt giving me a once over & repairing my chipped tooth 🦷 today. I’m good as new! LOVE this office.
AZ Motoxer188
Great dental office with caring staff and excellent dentists. I have been going to this office for over 25 years.
Morgan Sin
I’ve been going to Life Smiles for most of my life. My entire family loves the staff and all of the dental hygienists. Dr. Neilson and Dr. Schmidt are so kind and helpful with any problems that might occur with your teeth. The office is beautiful and always clean. I don’t know why going to the dentist has such a bad reputation. I guess I wouldn’t know because of how much I love going to Life Smiles!
Scott Fitzgerald
Absolutely the very best in quality dental care with the finest doctors and staff my family has ever experienced. We’ve all been patients of Dr Nielsen and his spectacular team over 12 years. Every experience positive and pain free. The care and consideration at every visit and the top notch office staff have us recommending LifeSmiles to all our friends and family.
Kate Longley
Maya was awesome! Such a pleasant experience. Love the TV’s on the booms above the chair.
Elaine Delgadillo
I love this dental office. Doctors are phenomenal and their staff is amazing! I’ve been a patient for a few years now. They have a great view in the exam rooms which makes the visit a plus. Very relaxing, clean, and calm atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed.
Leona Bianchi
I love Life Smiles Dental Care. Everyone is always so friendly and caring. Always very thorough with my dental needs. I had to cancel an existing appointment with Kelly for a cleaning, the office staff was able to get me an appointment with Jackie, who was just as caring and efficient as Kelly. I highly recommend Life Smiles.
Lisa Graham
Life Smiles always treats me exceptionally fantastic. The dentist and all of the associates in their office are always so friendly and kind. Thank you life smiles - the experience is amazingly beautiful. Appreciate 😊
The exceptional care and service continues into this new year and I am so incredibly happy with my pearly whites. Thank you again for everything you do for me.
I love my dentist office. Thank you everyone for your kindness and gentleness. Until next time.🦷
debra dziewit
Super great office. Everyone is kind, treats you like your the only one getting care. Always smiling and welcoming in the office . The dental hygienists are very patient and they make you feel comfortable. The dentist are super and have a great bed side manner. Definitely will continue to go to this dentist office. Also you never have to wait in the waiting room too long
Lisa Martin
I had my first crown & 2 minor fillings in over 15 years with Dr Neilson & his staff this week. Up until this point it was just cleanings which always went well too. (Hillary and Kelly are my hygienist-all are terrific.) Was not nervous but he still made sure I was comfortable and if I needed a break I raised my hand and they gladly stopped. They did both procedures in under an hour and the quality is excellent. Now that I had "real" dental work done; I know they are top notch and very kind and reassuring during a somewhat uncomfortable experience.
Sue Hillyer
I had veneers placed in Ohio. 2 weeks later, after returning to our winter home, one fell off. My dentist from MI made a referral to a colleague in AZ. They got me in the same day and were awesome. From the receptionist who called me, the one who greeted me in the office, the assistant and dentist were amazing. So thankfully for them all.
sherri hill
I am a “dental chicken”🐓 and I have had another positive experience at Life Smiles Dental. The entire staff is welcoming and friendly and makes you feel at ease.
Dr. Schmidt has squeezed me into his schedule twice to do work on the same day as an exam which saved me an extra drive from Peoria to Scottsdale! He is awesome😁
I have had a long relationship with Kelli the hygienist, and I love her. She is gentle and so very competent.
For all you chickens, don’t hesitate to try Life Smiles—-they will make you smile!🎉😃
Anna Schettino
My son chipped his tooth and was very self conscious of it. This was his first time at Life Smiles and not only did they do a great job, he said he will be glad to come back. His tooth looks better than even before the chip. Thanks for helping out and getting him in and his tooth fixed so quick!
Christy Andrade
This dentist office is amazing! I’ve only been a Client for two years but would not go anywhere else! They treat you like a person not a dollar sign! You never wait more then a few minutes for any appointment! They provide compassionate dental care to all ages!
Maureen Newkirk
We didn’t think Life Smiles could get any better… then they remodeled and made the office even bigger and nicer than before! They continue to keep the same welcoming environment and excellent care for their patients!
El Sos
These guys are awesome, we've been coming here for about 20yrs and with all of their changes, I would say they've been continually growing in a positive direction!
The people who work here are great and super friendly and helpful. They legit enjoy their work.
Aaron Tyra
My first experience with Life Smiles Dentistry was about 8 years ago. One morning while at work an old cap came off my tooth. Oh no I mentioned to my coworker who said my dentist office is great let me get the number. I didn't have a relationship with a dentist at the time. I was really shocked when they said do you want to come on in we will examine you when you get here. They completed the procedure fixing my tooth that morning. I've been a very happy client from first experience to my recent cleaning 8 years later. I do have a dental relationship now with Life Smiles Dentistry. And as my coworker did for me I'd recommend them to anyone.
Katy Heying
Every member of the staff here consistently gives exceptional customer service. My dental work has been perfect and they made sure I understood all my options before moving forward. I can’t recommend this practice enough.
Alyssa Quinn
Always a great experience when I come into Life Smiles! All hygienists are super friendly, as well as both doctors. Each time I come in I am greeted and welcomed in, have great conversations with hygienists during my cleanings, and the entire process is super comfortable, quick and easy. Would recommend them to anyone!
Susan Marshall
Very kind staff and thorough in each department. The best check up in 10 years in comparison to past dentist. Dentistry is done to perfection.
Joanna
Excellent practice. Great customer care. Highly quilified specialists and very gentle care. Highly recommended.
Kevin McCann
Everything about this dental office and it's people is professional and friendly. I highly recommend this for your dental work!
Lori Bowyer
Life Smiles Dental Care will give you the most pleasant dental experience you will ever have. Every member of the Life Smiles dental team will be sure you get the best dental care in a friendly and professional manner. I have been a patient for 8 years and it’s been a great experience every visit!
Thom's Gvoice HOLLISCREATIVE
Dr Nelson and his team are very knowledgeable regarding preventative procedures. I lost my mother way too early in life due to an usual type of oral cancer. Dr Nelson knew exactly what it was when I told him and I would trust him without doubt. Also I can't say that I've had a better teeth cleaning.
Angela Tana
Wonderful friendly staff and they always make sure your teeth and gums are healthy. They are careful to keep you pain free during any procedures.
Jess J
My family and I drive 40 minutes from Chandler to be seen at Life Smiles. We love it that much! They are incredibly friendly and kind. The dentist and hygienists are very gentle and fantastic to work with. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care!
Savanna Koss
I switched from my old dentist to Life Smiles about 3 years ago and it’s been the best decision I’ve ever made. Everyone is so nice and friendly and they’re quick while still doing top quality work. Unlike most dentists who are only open 8am-4pm they’re open 7am to 9pm depending on the day which gives me the flexibility I need. I would highly recommend this dentist to my family and friends.
T C
Life Smiles Dental hits it out of the park again. Kelly is the best! Like so many people, I put off getting my cleaning due to covid. I started having problems with my gums and called for an appointment. They got me right in. Thankfully no major problems that a great cleaning didn’t handle. I feel great! Best of all, I’m set up for my regular 6 month appointment in September. Thanks Kelly and Dr. Schmidt!
Myrna Collins
Dr. Nielsen was recommended to me after I had a bad experience with another dentist. His staff is friendly, the appointments are kept timely, & the service is exceptional. Everyone is courteous, they respect your time, and do everything in their power to make your visit as painless and comfortable as possible. Dr. Nielsen takes the time to listen to your concerns and gives a patient an opportunity to talk. I have never felt rushed. I had to have a root canal & Dr. Nielsen was amazing. Because of his gentleness and expertise - it was as tolerable as a root canal can be ; )
Would highly recommend.
Jon Tang
IMO, one of the best dental offices I've been in. They are honest and caring. They listen to your concerns and provide all the answers and information you need. From the first step in the office to the last step of your visit is all positive.
The staff at the front desk - Mari, Treatment Coordinator - follows up with me to make sure all my billing and appointment questions are answered and also provides appointment reminders or changes if needed. Every treatment plan is discussed thoroughly and provides a good timeline if it is a multiple procedure. Lily - patient coordinator - very accommodating to any last minute schedule changes and very understanding. I had an emergency one time and she was able to check with the dentist and made it work.
Dentists and Dental assistant - Both Dr. Schmidt and Dr. Neilson do amazing work! Had the pleasure working with them both. They run by everything with you and very patient with me when I have a ton of questions. They make sure you know exactly what is being done. The Wednesday evening hours is the emergency life saver! Didn't have to sleep with pain and wait for the next day. Miranda - Dental assistant - listens to my concerns and addresses any worries with the doctor. I don't have the best memory and so appreciative to know Miranda listens.
Jackie - Registered Dental Hygienist - Had a cleaning appointment and told her about my sensitive gums. Did amazing work and felt confident smiling for selfie again!
Best doctors and staff all around in my opinion! Been with them for a little over a year now. I could go on and on but just know you will be taken care of no matter which staff you encounter. Thank you Life Smiles for all you do!
Justin Wright
The best dentist I've had! Calm, kind, considerate interactions with every staff member, with every appointment. Extra covid precautions are reassuring and show their concern for their patients. Definitely give this practice a chance! (And ask for Jackie to do your cleanings... I've only worked with her, but she's wonderful!)
Michelle J.
What a great experience I had at Life Smiles! I had a good feeling when I initially called to make my appointment after doing a search for a dentist close to my home.The appointment scheduler was very nice, helpful and clear with instructions. From the minute I walked in for my appointment every single person working there was extremely pleasant and seemed to truly enjoy their job, which says a lot about the management and leadership. The front desk was efficient and informative, the hygienists and assistants were extremely accommodating and professional, and the dentist was very friendly and gave me many options. I never felt pressured into any treatments (as has been my experience at many other dentists) and they outlined all of my options with realistic expectations. I was so impressed that I called my partner on my way home to switch to them and he scheduled an appointment already! I have already told a few neighbors about how great this practice is, and I have NEVER done that before for any previous dentists I have been to. Looking forward to finally having a solid practice to keep coming back to. Thanks for a great experience!
Whisper Gailey
I have had what seems like nothing but bad experiences at the dentist from the time I was little. I have had extensive work done and still need extensive work done. Going to the dentist gives me anxiety because I’m so unhappy with my teeth. The people at this office were so incredibly nice. From the front desk staff to the hygienist to the dentist. I don’t have a single complaint or suggestion. After my appointment Janie (from the front desk) even came back and asked how things went and how I was feeling.
Seriously impressed with the care, level of knowledge, and thoroughness here. For the first time in forever I feel like I can commit to a long-term treatment plan to get to a smile I want to show off.
Jack DeBartolo
It was a great experience! They said I had really nice teeth and gave me some good techniques to keep my teeth nice and clean! Very friendly staff and Maryellen was a wonderful dental hygienist.
Leslie Brunt
Dr Nielsen and his team not only carved out a last minute appointment for me, they were all so friendly, kind, accommodating and professional. As a new patient, I was very impressed by the way everyone in the office worked together like clockwork, using safe, efficient protocols and Dr Nielsen was thorough in checking out my issues, addressing all my questions. Making my next appointment for a checkup and cleaning! Highly recommend
Christopher Holmes
The family and I have been loyal patients of Life Smiles for years and we really appreciate the professionalism and the kindness of all of the staff. They are the best, can't recommend them enough.
David Ettelson
The staff at Life Smiles does a consistently excellent job. They're always punctual, careful, and professional. They are also genuinely interested in their patients. When one has optional work that can be done, they are never pushy about it. Rather, they present it as an option. The front desk staff are always helpful and seem to like their jobs, which in the medical world, is rare indeed. My hygienist is fantastic; the gentlest I have had in decades. Plus she's a warm person and fun to be around. And Dr. Nielson is also thorough and professional. Bravo guys.
Lynn Hadley
Been a patient since 2009. Continue to receive great care from hygienists and doctor. Always helpful, friendly, thorough, and willing to educate on any dental hygiene questions I have.
Lynsey Jones
I have been coming here for several years. This office is the absolute best! Every person on staff will greet you with a smile and make sure they do everything they can to keep you comfortable. Additionally, they are on time - if my appointment was for noon, I get back there right at noon. Their promptness is so appreciated.
The doctors explain everything, the hygienists are all friendly, exceptionally smart, and super helpful, and the office staff are kind and willing to help.
I would recommend this practice to anyone. They even saw my three year old for her first visit and it went so well - my toddler has no fear of the dentist after visiting this amazing practice.
M Wong
Thank you for making my 1st visit an amazing experience. It was difficult to make a change to a different dentist that really care about their patients. My first phone call with Meg was a great experience, and she put me at ease in addressing all my concerns . She gave me history of the density, and the staff member who have been working for more 10 to 15 years speaks volume. My first appointment was a wonderful experience. Dr Schmit, Maru and Mya was amazing. They were very tuned into my visit, knowledge , patience, easy to talk with, and thoroughly went over my chart and treatment plan. Thank Lily for all your follow up to make sure i got the paperwork prior to my visit. I am looking forward to have a long term relationship with this density. You guys won me over! Thank you so much for providing me with such exceptional care. Your integrity and dedication to your work is truly something to be admired.
Heather Leedy
I typically have alot of anxiety surrounding dentists, however at Life Smiles Dental Care the whole experience was fantastic. The staff is kind and helpful. Dr. Nielson was very knowledgeable and had a gentle touch on my teeth and worked well with me so my anxiety was non existent and for that I am grateful. This is the first time in my adult life that I have had a positive experience at the dentist.
stephanie abrigo
Had a cleaning today and absolutely impressed with high level of service. The hygienist was super sweet and very informative. She was very gentle with my sensitive teeth and gave me plenty of breaks. The front office staff is incredibly quick and wait times were short. My husband and I will continue to go here.
Matt Wininger
This was the best dentist experience I have ever had. The staff was very accommodating, and helped ease away my anxiousness with getting dental work done. I’m glad I was able to find their office, and I’m looking forward to my next appointment in 6 months.
Steven Stoyer
They were very kind and compassionate to someone like me that hasn't been to the dentist in over 13 years. I didn't feel like I was looked down on and they didn't make me feel ashamed about my poor dental health. I had a painful tooth that they were able to take out and even had an earlier appointment then what I was scheduled for after I couldn't sleep in severe pain. They also have later hours too so it makes it possible to get in with my work schedule. I would highly recommend them to anyone needed dental care.
Jamie Friedman
As a patient of Life Smiles for about 10 years I have consistently received excellent dental care and customer service. The staff has a perfect blend of professionalism and personalism.
They make it easy to want to go to the dentist!
Nicole
Life Smiles is amazing! The staff goes above and beyond for their patients. I recently had to have my teeth pulled and a bridge put in. Not only do they do sedation dentistry but superb cosmetic dentistry as well. Im very pleased with my smile. Highly recommended!!
Maryann Crowley
My husband and I have been receiving our dental care with Dr. Nielson and his staff since we returned to AZ in 2017. Everyone on staff is professional and super friendly. We have never had to wait to receive care…always punctual! Dr. Nielson does excellent work. After braces for bite correction I needed my front teeth capped and my husband needed his front teeth capped due to chipping and filling loss. Dr. Nielsen’s work surpassed our expectations and our smiles make us smile! Wonderful work!
Janice Wells
I have been fearful of the dentist office since I was a child, because of a bad experience. I am so very happy to have found Life Smiles Dental Care. Both doctors are terrific. The office staff are very pleasant .. Maryellen is one of the dental hygienists and she is wonderful! Very gentle and she explains everything before she does it. This office really cares about you as a person and works with you. I feel very fortunate to have found them.
Rice Family
I was extremely impressed by the service, friendliness, professionalism and explanations by all staff. Dr Neilson was excellent in his examination of my teeth and Maryellen, on of the hygienist, did an outstanding job getting my teeth sparkling. I felt like a VIP with the way they treated me. They explained every single thing from what they were going to do, what was next, etc. I would highly recommend this office.
Kathleen Anderson
Life Smiles Dental Care is one of the finest dental practices in the valley. Life Smiles provides exceptional quality of care to all of its patients.
They have a wonderful staff of dental hygienists. My personal hygienist, Hilary,8 is amazing.
The front office staff are amazing professionals. It is the model of how a dental or medical office should be run.
Drs Nielsen and Schmidt are exceptional dentists and today I met the newest addition to their team, Dr Bishop.
I highly recommend Life Smiles to anyone looking for quality dental care.
Be Safe, Stay Healthy.
Rachel M.
From start to finish - this practice is absolutely amazing. I went in for the initial consultation and met with Dr. Schmidt, he went over the details of potential options for me and I instantly felt that I was in the best possible place for what I was looking to have done. I ended up having bonding done on my front four teeth. I am beyond satisfied with the final result. I can’t thank him enough for giving me my smile back. Thank you! All of you! Highly recommend- you can’t go wrong here. Pick up the phone and call them!!!
Joey Leebove
I’ve been a patient here for over six years and the staff is always prompt, friendly and professional. I always leave the office with a smile on my face and I’m proud to show off my pearly whites! Highly highly recommend Lifesmiles to anyone looking for a great dentist!
LJ Thornsburry
Life's Smiles Dental Care is the most caring dentist clinic I have ever been to. I've never been a fan of dental work. Dr. Nielson is super professional & good at what he does! He made getting a root canal as easy as it could be. I also have the best Hygienist Hilary she takes the time to explain everything & has given me a new perspective of the importance of gum health. Thank you Life Smiles for making dental work more than a tolerable experience.
Ro L
I called the office because of a chipped tooth. They squeezed me in the very next day. Dr. Nielson expertly repaired the chip. It looks perfect! He does such a great job. Everyone in the office is very nice and accommodating. I highly recommend this office for routine dental care and emergencies.
Mike Leabo
Great care with Dental needs. Always doing the right care with comfort.
Kim Glass
I had always been extremely petrified of dental offices until I found Life Smiles Dental. Dr.’s Neilson and Schmidt were very understanding and compassionate from the beginning, always putting my mind at ease with any procedure. Their professionalism and knowledge is top shelf! I would be remiss in not including the amazing front office staff as well as the hygienists. Everyone is so welcoming and professional. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my dental work!
Jamie Wisenall
Everyone was so nice and I actually enjoyed my appt today. I’m generally pretty nervous at the dentist but I felt super comfortable. I’m glad I went with this practice when we moved back to Phoenix.
Johnathan Scheibenpflug
Hands down, the best Dentist office I have ever been to. Everyone is extremely nice, take amazing care of their patients, and their work is stellar.
I had chipped one of my front teeth and had it repaired by Dr. Nelson. You wouldn’t be able to tell! Since then, I’ve been a loyal customer. I recently had my teeth whitened and the dental assistant was aware of the bonded tooth and was cautious to not allow the teeth whitening to expose the repair. All the Higenists are amazing. Thank you LifeSmiles for the great customer experience you provide visit after visit.
Penny
The professionals at Life Smiles made my visit a very pleasant experience. I was very pleased with Jackie’s thorough treatment while taking care of my teeth . She is excellent at her profession. I appreciate her explanation of everything related to my visit and answering my questions. Thank you for taking care of my dental needs and making me feel comfortable as I get used to being a new patient. Your office staff showed me their wonderful, caring nature.
Phil Lebherz
Today was my first vist to Life Smiles. The visit was exceellent. from Mari and Carrie in the front to Janet and Dr Tim. The young lady who did the cleaning was terrific. The total experience was as good as it gets. Phil Lebherz
After a year or so today was my second visit to Life Smiles and the service and attitudes were just as excellent as the first one. The ladies at the reception are top notch, “perfect” really and Maryellen, the dental assistant was excellent. Thanks to the team for their excellent service.
Joseph Silence
I’m not one who sees a dentist until it becomes an emergency. This office has changed my mind. From the reception desk to the treatment coordinator to the hygienists to Dr. Schmidt everyone and everything was done first class. There was no pushy effort to upsell care that wasn’t needed. The dentist explained what was needed, why it was needed and how it would be fixed. A quick and convenient appointment was scheduled. Two fractured fillings were removed and replaced in less time than it takes for an oil change. The whole process was easy, painless and reasonably priced. I highly recommend this office.
Candy Tan
From the second I stepped into the office I was welcomed by the receptionist. The team is super friendly and personal even though it was my first time there. Dr. Nielson spend a good amount of time during and after the exam. The hygienist is also very thorough!
Rudy Lopez
Myself, my wife, and my twin sons have received excellent care and exceptional treatment from the whole office staff. Truly a place that cares about quality and kindness.
Steven Franco
This is the best place to go to get the friendliest, kindest service. The front office staff all the way to the back office staff and the dentists are all amazing friendly people. Dr. Schmidt did a great job on my front tooth you can’t even tell that it’s not real he blended the material so well. I will definitely recommend this dental office to all of my friends and family.
Paisley LeGault
My first visit to a dental office in a while, I understood that I needed a lot done. They got me in quick with almost no wait time! Meg and Akilah(?), or Front Desk, was so kind and caring! They even helped me get in the building since I got a little lost, which was amazing since I don't see many places do that anymore.
Heidi took me back and was understanding of my dental anxieties, along with answering my questions before I had to ask! They are very informative and definitely have accurate knowledge on questions patients may, or will, ask. They are patient and kind, taking in the patients comfort and needs beforehand. Dr. Nielson was not only informative, but gave me various options in case I needed them which I greatly appreciate both location-wise and financially (Front Desk was very understanding in these categories as well)!
Hillary is an amazing hygienist who was so sweet and considerate about my comfort! She was amazing in making sure the cleaning was painless and that I was well-informed of what was happening. She let me know what she was doing, showed me how the tool worked before using it, and was amazing in keeping me motivated to brush and floss!
I would definitely recommend Life Smiles Dental to anyone who is looking for dental assistance! They are kind, compassionate, and extremely caring to their patients. Thank you to Life Smiles for making it extremely comfortable for my visit after not having my teeth cleaned in so long! I even have an amazing plan to get everything fixed, without worry! They are amazing, and I will definitely be coming back for all of my teeth cleanings and possible evaluations!

Shelby Vaughan
Having lost a crown on a flight to Phoenix, I was concerned it would be weeks before I could see a dentist. On my daughter’s recommendation, I called Life Smiles Dental, and was seen the next morning. I turned down an appt the same day I called, because of a prior engagement. The visit was amazing from the second I walked in, until I walked out. Front desk attendants were kind, and very professional. As soon as I finished paperwork, Miranda was there to escort me to the exam room and quickly had things done so I could see dentist. Dr. Schmidt came in promptly and introduced himself, made the decision my old crown could be used. Miranda prepared everything and stayed with me during the visit, talking to me and making me feel very comfortable. Dr. Schmidt quickly returned and did a great job of recementing the crown on. I was offered a great discount plan to help with the cost of visit and a first time patient offer for a later cleaning, X-rays, and exam.
The office was spotlessly clean, everyone was efficient and so nice. I thank my daughter for recommending them to me!!
Eileen Shorr
I have been using life smiles dental care since I moved to Arizona eight years ago. Dr. Paul Nielson and Kelli are the best. Actually, the entire office staff is terrific. Everyone is so caring and helpful. My daughter Rona and her mother-in-law Jackie also like this dental practice. The office is professional. Everything runs smoothly and efficiently. If you have a problem they are there to help you. I highly recommend that you use this office for your dental needs. Eileen Shorr
Alex Weiss
What a great office! I was greeted at the door and given a tour of the office (as a new patient). The staff was very friendly and accommodating throughout the experience. Dr. Nielsen was excellent and so was Jackie. I am excited to have a new dentist who I trust will give me the care I need.
Jeri Royce
I have been a patient at Life Smiles Dental Care for many years. Whether I’m having my teeth cleaned, getting a new crown, or having a filling replaced as I did this week I am reminded why I have been a patient for so long. Without exception everyone I interact with from the moment I step in the office and throughout my visit is professional, friendly, and customer focused. Dr. Nielson is kind, patient and engaging and delivers exceptional dentistry!
sima Gharagozly
I forgot the name of the person I saw today, but she did a excellent job cleaning my teeth. She was very focus, professional, pleasant, and she was not rushing to finish my cleaning. She seems very confident and knows what she is doing it felt great I almost fall sleep because she made me feel very comfortable and I trusted her work. Thank you life Smile for taking care of my tooth for past 9 years. Sima
Chelsea Elliston
Life smile dental care staff is always so kind and professional. Dr. nelson does the best work! And has been my dentist for years. The building is always clean and sanitary. I Would recommend to anybody in the area!
Sue Fitzgerald
The office is friendly and professional. Kelli is an amazing dental hygienist. Met Dr. Schmidt for the first time since he was subbing for Dr. Nielson and he is kind and very knowledgeable. The atmosphere is the office is very pleasant. I would highly recommend this dental practice.
Monica Burritt
I have been a patient at Life Smiles Dental for just over a year. I used to dread going to the dentist, but Life Smiles has made the dentist a more pleasant experience. Every intervention they have done has been well justified and explained thoroughly ahead of time. They give you quotes on services you are interested in and there is no pressure to schedule with them immediately. Dental hygienists, Jackie and Mya, have given me awesome cleanings that have been painless, even with my very inflamed gums, and have improved my gum health tremendously! I would recommend Life Smiles to anyone who is looking for a new dentist. They are kind, always positive and efficient!
JJ Allen
What stands out about Life Smiles Dental Care is that last word….Care! Beginning at the front and continuing throughout the process, you feel the Care from everyone. As a child, I never enjoyed going to the dentist (Still not at the top of my list) but Life Smiles has now made going to the dentist a great experience! Thank you Life Smiles!
Anthony Lowman
All of my family members have been patients at Life Smiles, and we've never had less than a perfect experience. Every member of their team does their best to make sure we're well taken care of, kept comfortable and happy with our dental health and office visits. They're thorough, professional, and caring, and all at costs that are quite reasonable. I absolutely recommend Life Smiles to anyone that's looking for the ideal dental experience.
Ashley G
The staff and the dentist are so wonderful and friendly! Very family oriented and made us feel so welcome as soon as we walked in. Highly recommend them!!
Zach Zapata
I had a phenomenal experience at Life Smiles with Dr. Schmidt and Erin the Dental Assistant. This was my first time at their office and my expectations were well exceeded, I felt like I was treated with 5 star service from the doctor and rest of the front office team. Dr. Schmidt took his time to ensure I understood the treatment and that I was taken care of. Honestly this visit made my week :) Thanks Dr. Schmidt!
Rick Dawes
I just love the care I received from Life Smiles Dental Care! I love, adore, and respect my hygenist, Kelli, and Dr Timothy Schmidt! They are so professional, fun, and they always treat me with respect and the most gentle and loving care! They are the Best! I highly recommend this practice! Seriously!😁 …
Carrie Anderson
Life Smiles is amazing! Cannot imagine going anywhere else for dental care. Dr. Nielson and Dr. Schmidt are both kind, caring, and extremely knowledgeable. The entire team is incredible and always welcoming. Our family has been going here since the beginning and both of our children love them as well, definitely a better experience than he two pediatric dentists that we tried. Really cannot say enough!
Britt Carson
The entire team at Life Smiles is friendly and helpful. Meg and the front desk staff are all very pleasant, welcoming and accommodating. The technicians I’ve seen - Mya and Hillary - do a great job. They’re also knowledgeable and informative, which I appreciate. The dentists are trustworthy and concerned with the comfort of their patients. Getting on their schedule can take time though, so call in advance. They’re very busy, but for good reason!
Jan Urbanski
Everyone is so pleasant that works here! They are EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL and yet enjoyable to be with! Thank you for letting us tell others about my GREAT Dentist office!

anita greif
I had a wonderful dentist for 20 years who decided to finally retire to Texas. He was a kind honest & conservative dentist. I was apprehensive seeking out Dr. Nielson however my co worker shared her solid & positive recommendation.
Greeted initially by his staff, warmly introduced to the team and given a through exam by Dr. Nielson gave me piece of mind. He provided straight forward, honest and educated options for his exam findings. He listened to my thoughts & provided suggestions for best outcomes towards my dental care. I’m extremely pleased with finding a kind & conservative dentist. Thank you
Adriana Vicovan
I highly recommend Life Smiles. Busy mom of four that looks forward to my cleaning and enjoys 45 minutes of me time. The office is so beautiful decorated and gives you the spa feel 🍃 the Doctor and staffs are amazing! …
Kaylee Beranek
Absolutely love the office, staff, and doctors. We drive from North Phoenix because there is not another dentist office in the valley that can compare.
Cameron Dietrich
Life Smiles is one of the best dentist practices I have ever been to! They are very professional and personable. They make scheduling easy, and do whatever they can to fit you in. They are super gentle and great with describing their plans, recommendations, and diagnoses. I would highly recommend using them if they are in your area.
Anne Vossbrink
I had gone to the same dentist office for years before switching to life smiles dental care. At my previous dentist office the hygienist I usually saw left, and I just wasn’t happy with the care was provided any more. I knew I needed to find a new dentist and was overwhelmed by the choices in the valley. I decided I would ask my child’s pediatric dentist offices staff where they go, as I was happy with their treatment and dental work, I figured they would only go to places the provided excellent care. Every single one of the staff I talk to said they themselves go to life smiles dental care. I’ve been going to life smiles dental care for about two years now, and they are professional and friendly, discuss any issues and options with me, their office is welcoming and clean and their appointments run on time. I’ve also never had a billing issue with them nor any issue with them trying to sell add on services that I didn’t need, which was an issue with my old dentist office. I would highly recommend life smiles dental care to anyone.
Tam Raymond
From the moment you walk into Life Smiles Dental you know you are in great hands. The office staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. The office is always clean and I love the modern decor! Besides being a skilled dentist, Dr. Nielson is a such a caring person and will always make you feel at ease. I would recommend this dental office to anyone.
Fisher of Men Productions
I have been a patient of Life Smiles for many years now. My experience, not just recently, but consistently throughout the years has been very positive. The front office staff is courteous and knowledgeable. The dental hygienist team (particularly my hygienist Mary Ellen) are personable and professional. I am treated as a partner in the process of keeping my mouth healthy and I am never spoken down to (I'm sure we've all been scolded by a dentist somewhere down the line!) The technology being utilized for treatment and even for for appointment reminders is state of the art. I always receive a notification several days before my appointment and the opportunity to confirm it. There is much more to be said regarding Life Smiles but suffice it to be said that if you are looking for a competent and courteous dental practice you need look no further. You'll find it right here! - Mitch Salmon
James Gerdes
Lifesmiles exceeds expectations. I have been seeing them for quite a while and they are always so friendly and informative. Dr. Schmidt is about as good as they come, always talks you through what’s going on, and prepares you as he is performing dental procedures. Highly recommend.
E
The entire team is genuinely friendly, the dental care team is extremely skilled, discussing with the team members it has become apparent that the company invests in applicable continuing education opportunities for their team members (I'm in the medical field myself, so something I can truly appreciate), I love their flexibility their insurance policy provides me. My sister gets kudos for referring me to this excellent service. I live out of state now, but still plan on trying to make by bi-annual appointments while visiting family - they are that good!
6 month check in update 4/10/2015: Everyone in the Life Smiles Dental Care team is wonderful to me. I consider myself a loyal customer - I schedule my appointments during my vacations to Arizona because I like them so very much! They are always very accommodating, commit themselves to furthering their knowledge and skills in their field, and are just generally great people. I highly recommend them!
Veronica Iatesta
Dr. Paul Nielson is a great dentist. The whole office, from front desk to dental hygienist to doctor visit provides a welcoming experience. The dentist is typically my least favorite type of medical visit but they make it a very pleasant experience and I would recommend this office to anyone!
Jeff Frye
From someone that has never been a fan of going to the dentist….Life Smiles is wonderful! Everyone is friendly, communicative and caring! Life Smiles has changed how I view going to the dentist! They are the Best!
Luke Engbrecht
This was my first dentist visit in 8ish years. Due to bad experiences in my childhood, I’ve been afraid to go. I am also autistic, so sometimes certain experiences can be very overwhelming. I was absolutely blown away by how kind everyone at this office was. As soon as I told them I was anxious, everyone went above and beyond to make me feel safe and comfortable. Everything that was done to me was made very clear and I was always asked if I understood before we proceeded. I was given a way to nonverbally communicate that I needed a break, and although I did not need it, it was a comfort knowing I could do that. I never felt like a burden for asking so many questions. My hygienist Maryallen, was phenomenal. She treated me as if I was her own son, and I felt very safe. She also did an amazing job cleaning my teeth, I’m not afraid to smile anymore. Keri at the front desk remembered me from when I first called the office to set up my appointment. She was incredibly kind as well. Everyone was amazing. I will never go to another office, even if I move out of state I’ll make a point to come back here.
Chris Debaggis
I will be simple on this. Respect and empathy. That's what I have gotten with every interaction from the staff, they treat you like a person, not like a mark for a sale. You feel welcomed and when you want to have a brief chat with them you get to have that with people that have open ears and an open heart. They understand that people have flaws and that we all have good days and not so good days and that we all can learn from each other. Respect and empathy that goes a long ways. And for that I appreciate them.
Ivette Vega
Life Smiles Dental Care has been a pleasant experience EVERY time I go there. My dental hygienist Mary Ellen is the best! She always does a phenomenal job with cleaning my teeth and it wasn't until I switched over to this office and started seeing Mary Ellen that my oral health improved and has been in the best shape in my life. Thank you Life Smiles!
~Ivette Peters
Haley
I couldn't be happier with my experience at Life Smiles. You walk in, you are greeted by the wonderful office staff. I was taken back on time for my appointments and given a great and informative tour. I had my teeth cleaned by Mary Ellen. She was gentle, sweet, and thorough. Dr. Nielson preformed my exam at my first visit, and was very conservative with the work that needed to be done. I returned for another appointment and Dr. Schmidt did my fillings, he was fantastic! He has a awesome chair-side manner. The best dental office I've ever been to in Arizona.
Judy Andrich
I look forward to my visits to this dental practice . Everyone there is welcoming and friendly and very competent! Dental hygienist Hilary is a delight as well as thorough and considerate. My husband and I both feel fortunate that we found out about this practice soon after we moved to Phoenix.
Mireya Reyes
This was my first time visiting Life Smiles Dental Care and it was fantastic! They are open late hours which helps me because I have work until 5pm but I’m still able to get seen and taking care of. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. I was very pleased with my visit. I will definitely be coming back.
Alex Shaw
Life Smiles is first class in everything they do. From the office itself, equipment and technology, and of course the Employees. They do a great job in making you feel comfortable and taken care of and always doing everything in your best interest.
James Royer
The best Dental Office I have ever had the pleasure of using! Great staff that truly cares about their patients. I will never switch, customer for life l!
Dave Embury
Very satisfied with the staff and Dr Schmidt. Had 2 visits and each one was as enjoyable as can be expected with a visit to the Dentist. Knowledge and easy to talk to.
Would recommend Life Smiles to anyone
Cladissa Franco
I absolutely love this place! Everyone is very professional and friendly. From their front desk person all the way to the back office dental assistant. Both dr. Nielsen and Dr. Schmidt are the best in the business. In a world where customer service is lacking this office has top-of-the-line customer service. I will definitely be referring all my friends and family to this office
E Black
Dr, Schmidt is just wonderful- the whole staff is wonderful! I can’t say enough nice things about them! I had pain, they got me in after hours & fixed my tooth. They care about people and do such a great job. There are no surprises with billing or anything else.
Rick Dawes
First of all, I must say that I just love Kelli! She is the most gentle, most thorough, most conscientious dental hygienist I've ever known! She is awesome! Their overall practice is centered around loving patient care and support. As a medical care professional, I couldn't be happier with the Life Smiles Dental Care team!
Vanessa Forrest
I've been seeing life smiles dental care for quite a few years now. I go every 6 months for a check up and clean and I always get the best clean I've ever had. Highly recommend them, attention to detail and everyone in the office is sweet as.
sarah alba
Life Smiles has only ever treated me wonderfully, working with me in every aspect of my care. The staff takes time to make sure I understand my treatment plan and payment/insurance arrangements. They helped me schedule an emergency dental appointment via text! I feel very cared for at this practice.
Jennifer Stoops
I can’t say enough good things about this entire practice! Every single person you come in contact with is friendly, warm, helpful, so incredibly kind and that is huge for someone like me who has a lot of anxiety about the dentist! Dr Nielson is amazing and I really appreciate how he explains everything, is always willing to work my treatment around what is best for me and never makes me feel pressured at all. They truly put the patient first. Anyone I have spoken with on the phone is so kind and goes above and beyond to help and puts you at ease right away. I would (and do) recommend this practice to anyone and everyone!
TheMsmay2
I’m impressed how clean the place, staff members are all professional.

Dusty Bechtel
This dental practice is one of the most friendly, caring and professional businesses I have ever visited. I felt valued and respected as a patient and appreciated their commitment to my dental care. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care.
Pamela Michal
First thing walking through the door I was greeted by the receptionist who was friendly, the office was clean, neat and inviting. Loved the rooms with views of the Mountains which made me feel relaxed and at ease. The girl who brought me back to the room was very personable. We got to talking about hiking and just felt they everyone was friendly and not too friendly (it wasn't forced) The Dentist was able to give me a second opinion for my treatment plan which had been done elsewhere and I feel more comfortable and the room was much more neat and clean and inviting. They seem to care about quality of work and knowing that crowns have a 5 yr warranty and fillings have a 2 yr warranty gives some peace of mind especially when you know you need to put out a lot of money for dental work. I liked that they take you into a private office to discuss your payment options. I will continue to go here.

Dr. Paul was recommended by my dentist in Reno Tahoe area before we moved here! When an implant came loose his staff was on top of it and help me get in on the next business day! They are polite and friendly and Dr. Paul was way cool! Will continue to use them as long as we are in Phoenix!
Kurtis Simmons
I love going to Life Smiles Dental. Their staff is caring and so thorough. They make going to the dentist a mini vacation during my day. They not only care about my dental health but they care about me as a person. I definitely recommend them!
Kelsey Simmons
Dr. Schmidt is one of THE nicest people you will ever meet. The way he treats his staff and his patients demonstrates the kind of person he is. Everyone in the office has incredible interpersonal skills as well as a very professional and respectful approach. I brought my almost 3 year old for his very first dentist appointment, and it seriously could not have gone any better. The staff made him feel so comfortable that he let the hygienist do the full cleaning AND x-rays. In fact, when I went back to get my own teeth cleaned my toddler was very upset because he wanted his teeth cleaned again. Having a toddler that gets excited to go to the dentist makes any drive worth it.
I was apprehensive regarding my own visit, as I had to bring my toddler and 8 month old, but once again things went so smoothly. I never once felt like a disruption or inconvenience. Instead, everyone kept telling me that we would make it work, and the whole staff willingly jumped in to help entertain my kids during my 1 1/2 hour visit. That kind of atmosphere speaks volumes about the people who work here and the quality of care they strive to provide. I left the office feeling cared for, respected, and valued. I’ve never been so satisfied after a dentist appointment! I I give my highest recommendation for LifeSmiles!
Paul Fiarkoski
I've been going to this office for nearly 18 months and haven't written a review yet because, until yesterday, all I've received was regular cleanings and check ups. I'm one of those people you hear about that get irrationally anxious about dental work. Seriously, it starts a couple days before the appointment.
For me, the true test of a dentist is how comfortable I feel during more involved procedures. Yesterday, that was some major work to prep for a bridge for my upper back molars. Dr. Nielsen and his staff are true pros. They listened to my needs and made adjustments to their procedures to accommodate my "special needs". I left in complete awe of how little anxiety I felt during that appointment. As long as I live in Phoenix, this will be my dentist office.
Bohdan Valchuk
Always great service and really good and friendly staff. Recommend everyone who’s looking for a long term dental care provider.
Rada Duvnjak
Prior to coming in for my first consultation with Dr.Schmidt, I was very nervous and I had a lot of anxiety due to previous dental services/history. Even after making the consultation appointment, I debated whether I should come in even though most of my molars were in various states of dental decay as a result of not seeing a dentist in years (10). As Dr.Schmidt phrased it, I was very comfortable with my diseased mouth, but in all seriousness I was 10 years past due for a visit. When I came in for my appointment, I was first introduced to Myra, who was very gentle and put me at ease. She took my ex-rays and was great at accommodating me even though I had a difficult time opening my mouth wide and as a result made her job much harder. She was patient and kind throughout the whole process and continued to be for every visit thereafter. My experience with Dr.Schmidt was awesome. From my very first visit, he listened to my concerns patiently and explained what the restoration process would require. After wax up or two, Dr.Schmidt gave me several different options, which I really appreciated for what could be done to restore my mouth and we went from there. My most nerve racking appointment involved 8 or 9 extractions and I was ready to bolt from the chair at one point, but throughout it all, Dr.Schmidt and Myra remained calm and did everything that they could to keep me comfortable. I survived that appointment and came back for the rest because they are a wonderful team and I knew I was in good hands. I will continue coming to Life Smiles Dental because Dr.Schmidt is a knowledgeable dentist and has a good eye for detail (I really liked the shape of the crowns of my upper canine teeth-they complement the rest of my teeth very well) and because Myra is the world’s most patient dental assistant and gave great advice about what I needed to do for maintenance after every appointment. Overall, my experience has been great so far.
Ramona Lopez
I seriously can't say enough about this Practice. From the moment you walk in you're treated with caring and kindness. The hygienists are amazing, the dentists are great and all of the staff are happy to be there. It was also important to me that the staff are treated well when I was researching a new practice Years ago and they TRULY are. I'd recommend them to ANYONE who's is looking for the best practice in the valley....in my humble opinion.
Sharon Swanson
Life Smiles Dental Care is sooo phenomenal !!
They are so friendly, great and caring that
I referred my parents to Dr. Nielson and Dr. Timothy Schmidt. I appreciate them and their wonderful staff. They take the time to explain all procedures that are needed. They care about the person. Not so much about the money.
I can't say enough wonderful things about Life Smiles Dental Care. Front desk / Kelli - Registered Hygienist and of course the Doctors are fantastic !!! Best dental home ever !!!
Sara Cruz
Well It’s been a year now since I moved to Goodyear Estrella Mountain and will stay with my dentist. Life-smile Dental Care is worth the ride and gas. The service is number one in my book. Friends tell me I am crazy but I say if you care about your teeth and service go here. I recommend them highly. I rather drive far get great service then drive close and receive so so service. Friendly, hardworking and caring that is what Life smile offers. In a time where everything is rushing its good to know that here is about service and not just getting your money and go. I give them a ten they deserve it.
Terry Jochum
This is the most professional and competent dentist office I have used in Arizona. I go for routine check-ups and cleanings. All of the hygienists are very good and very thorough. The dentists are excellent and are very good about providing a treatment plan that works for you on your schedule, outlining what is a priority and what can be done a later. Overall a great practice and I will be going there as long as I’m in Arizona!
Nicole Miller
Wonderful office, staff and dentist. Everyone was pleasant, patient, friendly and helpful. My 7 year daughter and I loved this office. We have found our new dental home and will tell everyone needing dental care to call Life Smiles!
Ida Greene
I’ve been going to Life Smiles for 4 years an would not change. Both Dentists are excellent an give you all the details about a problem so you can make a good decision that fits your needs. Maryellen my hygienist does a excellent job cleaning an gets the dentist involved when you have a problem. They do not pressure you into doing any work you tell them. If you want a good dental office call them I highly recommend them
Ray Lewis
I always get great service and results at Life Smiles. Not only is Dr. Nielson and excellent dentist, but his experienced staff is knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
Even as I'm waiting for the dentist to come into my room, the staff is asking if there is anything I need; if I have any questions before the dentist arrives...seemingly anything to make me comfortable. That's why I keep coming back.
Thank you!!!
Ray
Pattie Leonardis
My dentist of 32 yrs closed his practice and I thought I'd never find another dentist that I could trust and feel comfortable with. I tried two other dentists before I found Life Smiles. I love them and have no concerns about the quality of care that I will receive. Their staff is so wonderful! Now retired and longer having health insurance they offered me an inexpensive discount plan to make costs more manageable. All around great experience and excellent care!
R Platts
I had my first appointment with this office today and I felt like royalty! Every member of their team is professional, friendly and welcoming. I had choices on upcoming treatment plans and there was absolutely no hard sell. We discussed pros and cons of each and I made my decision. Hygienist Kelli was super gentle, friendly and informative.
Anna Campbell
Life Smiles takes care of my whole family and we are all very pleased with the outstanding care we receive. Like most parents, I was nervous about how my littles would do with the experience of going to the dentist. Today I heard my 6 year old telling my 3 year old before her first visit, “they let you watch TV and you get a toy. It’s like a kids dream”. Everyone there is excellent, but shout out to Jackie for making the experience “a kids dream”. 😂
Jolene Vincent
I always enjoy coming to Life Smiles Dental. They are always so friendly (even when I had a 7a.m. appointment)! They explain everything they will do and are doing as they clean my teeth. I trust their expertise and recommend them to anyone wanting excellent care and friendly staff. Thank you!
Marissa Rick
This office is fabulous! The staff is super friendly, and the office is very well put together and clean. Dr Schmidt seems to have a conservative approach which I appreciate, and my hygienist Kelli gave me some awesome hiking tips which I love! Looking forward to my next visit!
Candice Leger
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Nielson’s for three years and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Everyone is very friendly, always on time, and very thorough. Everything you want in dental care.
Vincent Puzzuoli
We had a great experience at Life Smiles. I recently "fired" my old dentist because the staff seemed really pushy about dental work and wasn't very friendly. The staff at Life Smiles was amazing. Everyone was friendly and we didn't have to wait long. The office is also very nice. We are excited for our new dentist.
Diti Sangoi
I love Life Smiles!! Been to a lot of dentists and I can tell you these guys are great!! The check-in process is easy, they run on time, the hygienists (particularly Maryellen!!) are wonderful and the doctors (Dr. Schmidt) are even better!! Highly recommend Life Smiles
Haley Rodriguez
I love this dental office! The front desk staff is very friendly and helpful; the dental hygienists are painless and super personable; and the dentists are just as pleasant! Each exam room has amazing views of the mountains, they allow you to watch tv during your cleaning, and they don’t push unnecessary dental procedures on you like other dentists do. I highly recommend this office to anyone with anxiety about the dentist. They do everything they can to put you at ease!
Jasmine Dalisay
Everytime I come here, I am treated so well and they have a way of making you feel comfortable very fast. They work with your financial budget and they always make sure to thoroughly explain the procedure before it's done, and they always make sure that what ever ideas they may have, youre on board with and that its in your best interest. I used to dread going to the dentist, but I absolutely look forward to coming here! I wouldnt go anywhere else!
William Bryant
Just had my six month check up and cleaning done again.... It’s hard to imagine that I look forward to the dentist appointment twice a year… As a child, I absolutely hated going to the dentist ...but once I found the Life Smiles office and Kelley , I absolutely enjoy going in, relaxing , and having my teeth cleaned. I would highly recommend them to anyone
Brittaney Mills
This week I had my first visit with Dr. Tim Schmidt, after being refferred by my colleague, since I typically have high anxiety going to the dentist, she knew I would be well taken care of by Life Smiles. My first impression by just sitting in the waiting room was wonderful. All of the patients were very nice to the staff and the staff greeted everyone by first name basis and it was just a great experience already. Then I went to the back and met Dr. Schmidt and his assistant, they both were so great but Dr. Schmidt made me feel like he actually cared and listened to how I felt and made me feel 100x better through my while appointment. I am so greatful to have finally found a dentist that I can trust and feel comfortable with. Then today, I received a text from Dr. Schmidt making sure all of my questions were answered and gave me all of his contact information if I have any questions during business and after hours. My whole experience was spectacular! A huge thank you to Dr. Schmidt and the staff at Life Smiles, i am so excited to begin my new dental journey with you!
Nick Mastrodonato
I moved to the area recently. Always had good teeth, no cavities or fillings ever. My dentist from back home who I visited regularly kept me good. I went somewhere else when I first moved here and they said I had a mouth full of cavities. I didn't trust it. I was referred to Life Smiles Dental and they are amazing! Super friendly and ethical and comforting. Highly recommend!
Jabbour S. Semaan
My first visit to Life Smiles was yesterday. I found them on the internet, and after reading a few of their 385 five stars reviews , I decided to call for an appointment. I can truthfully say that I had a most pleasant experience from the moment I entered the office to the moment I left. The physical office as well as the staff project a strong family orientation, a serene and peaceful atmosphere, a genuine concern and interest in the patient, and a high level of skillful professional performance. I found Dr. Nielson and his assistants to be all a patient expect and much more. Thank you Life Smiles for living up to your name. I enjoyed meeting you all and will be seeing you soon again as need arises.
Sabrina Stramecki
i popped a crown over the weekend and did not have a dentist as I had recently moved to Arizona. I called the office and they were able to get me in same day. I was greeted immediately as I walked in the door. I was treated very well. Long story short, I had my crown re-bonded and 2 cracked fillings replaced. They were able to do all the work immediately! The dr could have said I needed a crown for the cracked tooth but he said a filling would suffice for now. I am very pleased with his work and the staff and I believe I may have found my Arizona dentist!
Karen Chamberlain
I usually don't give a 10 out of 10, but Dr. Nielson of Life Smiles definitely deserves it! I had had my front tooth chipped during a routine cleaning at another nearby family practice dentist and did not want to give them opportunity for more damage, so needed a reliable dentist who could bond my front tooth to give it additional stability. A friend had highly recommended Life Smiles. They were able to fit me in the same day I called and did a thorough and professional job. I recommend Life Smiles now to all my friends and family! Great experience, fantastic staff, phenomenal dentist, fair pricing! What more could you ask!!!!
Trish Melton
This place is far from my home, but the staff, Dental Hygienists, and both of the Dentists are well worth the drive.
They are all so friendly and welcoming.
I am so glad Karle came to our benefits fair at Safeway a couple years ago. I spun and won a gift certificate and fell in love with this place. I would recommend this office to a friend, family member, or a stranger.
Thanks to you all for being so truly amazing.
Next month my 3 boys will start going here as well.
Katherine Kossaras
Such an awesome staff from the desk staff, dental assistants & Dr. Paul Nielsen. They explain the cost & procedure before anything is done. There is no pressure on your decision.
Cleanings & check ups are the best I’ve ever had.
Britt Lewis
Amazing staff that goes above and beyond. Both Dr. Nielsen and Schmidt are also fantastic. I have recommended Life Smiles to anyone and everyone who asks me for the name of a good dentist. They are better than good though - they are great!
Glen Tharp
I have been seeing the Life Smiles team for several years now and simply put this is the best dental practice I have ever recieved care from. The office is ran very professionally and efficiently. The staff, hygienists and dentists are very friendly and make you feel very comfortable. Dr. Nielsen, Mya and Hilary take excellent care of my oral health. If you are looking for a top notch Dental practice look no farther than Life Smiles.
Chancey Rae
This is now my fourth visit with Life Smiles Dental Care and I am still thrilled to have found a dentist that not only takes great care of my teeth but also allows me to feel safe and comfortable coming to their office. I have never been a fan of going to the dentist and after waiting for almost 10 years to finally go I found out that I'm going to need some extensive work done. I have now already completely two of the major procedures and I am so happy with work that has been done. My last procedure is to get 6 crowns done and though it isn't the cheapest thing to get done I am determined to save up to go have them done here because of how happy I am with this establishment. Dr. Schmidt and his team are all very caring and helpful when it comes to my needs.
I appreciate all of you and especially Mari for helping me figure out my insurance stuff and getting all my treatment plans made up and showing me all my options.
I am looking forward to future visits with you guys and hopefully I can get to the point where I don't have to be sedated all the time haha :)
Kristopher Laing
I recently became a patient of Dr. Nielson's and I know I have found my dental home. My new patient visit was comforting and informative from beginning to end. I was first greeted by a friendly front office staff then given a thorough tour of their beautiful office. After the dental assistant took the most comfortable x-rays I've ever had, she offered me a bottle of water and got the doctor while I watched ESPN from my dental chair! This was the most time a dentist has ever spent with me at an appointment. Dr. Nielson listened to my dental history and dental concerns. After the exam, he reviewed all my x-rays and photographs showing me great close-ups in a way I've never seen my teeth before. He then explained the treatment recommendations very clearly and logically. I was then transferred to the hygienist Kelli for the best cleaning I've ever had! She was so knowledgeable, thorough and friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. Paul Nielson and Life Smiles Dental Care to all of my friends and family.
Jesse Barker
I relocated from Minneapolis, and I was referred by my father, because of their extraordinary customer service. I am pleased to be able to say the same! I had my consultation today, 11/8/21, and I walked out with a complete timeline and what to expect for my upcoming procedures. Thank you!
The Advantage Group
Our experience with life smiles dental care has been exemplary. Professional and thorough. Our son has also been receiving services since he was a baby. Mary Ellen is a phenomenal hygienist!
Lesley Eastman
I transferred to this dental group after having a bad experience at my prior dental office. They not only provide excellent customer service, but are also very knowledgeable. Dr. Schmidt repaired the bonding on my front two teeth and did a better job than any other dentist I’ve had in 30 years. He has a great eye for detail. I’m so happy I found them.
Justin Singer (Spider-Man)
Absolutely wonderful dental office! From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave you feel very welcome there. The people are the best and very thorough and explaining everything that's going on. Never felt any pressure to do unnecessary procedures. You'll look forward to your future visits after your first visit!
All Ears with Mrs. Jaclyn
I had horrible experiences at the dentist as a kid and hated the idea of picking my own dentist as an adult. A coworker recommended Life Smiles when I mentioned needing a dentist. I was very impressed with their care and understanding of my being fearful of being at the dentist. My husband also goes to Life Smiles and has had a very successful dental implant completed with the highest level of care and detail. We recommend Life Smiles to anyone we know looking for a dentist.
Greg Davis
Life Smiles has surpassed my expectations. Dr. Tim Schmidt and his staff make every visit pleasant. From arriving at the front desk, to scheduling the next appointment, everyone is organized, efficient, and knowledgeable. Tim is a caring and patient doctor who I trust. Special thanks to Kelli (hygienist), Erin (assistant), Mari (front-office) and the rest of the team. I highly recommend Life Smiles. Thank you! Greg
Robert Fish
As someone that struggles heavily with anxiety when it comes to visiting the dentist, Life Smiles and Dr. Schmidt have been great to work with. Compassionate, thoughtful, and flexible.
Lisa Serritelli
Mia, my Hygentist, was wonderful. Already made my next appointment, 6 months in advance, to assure that she can take care of me. Everyone there is incredibly friendly and professional.
Gigi Doyle
I broke a crown this weekend, and Life Smiles got me in for a temporary crown right away. Dr Nielson, Dr Schmidt, and the whole staff know me by name and treat me really well. They are always compassionate, and I trust them with all my dental care.
I’ve actually been a patient since 2013. This office is the best in the valley in my opinion.
Ironbear Adventures
I always have a great experience when I come here. The staff is more than just nice... I have made some great friends being a patient here over the many years. The office is impeccably clean. I personally have a lot of dental anxiety from previous experiences as a child, but I honestly look forward to coming to my appointments here!
Marnie McGann
I've been going to Lifestyles dental care for several years and am pleased with the attention to detail the care in which they help patients and the professionalism. Dr. Schmidt is an excellent dentist with a very fun and playful bedside manner. He doesn't push their patients to get unnecessary procedures but rather just gives options. This is not a hard sell place but a professional dental office
Erik Sullivan
I really enjoy Life Smiles. Extraordinarily friendly staff from the front desk, to the hygienist, to the dentist. Minimal wait times when arriving for appointments and flexible hours (my wife had an 8pm appointment). I would definitely recommend Life Smiles to anyone looking for dental care in a positive, friendly environment.
Brian Dessoy
Had a great visit, so easy, the staff is great, Kelly is the coolest hygienist in Arizona! The dentists are awesome too. Both my wife and I have been going for years.
Jeremy Smelser
Weird rating a dentist with a good review but I was very happy with my experience. I needed a few cavities filled that were getting really bad but I didn't have insurance. They went over any work they recommended but they never pushed and left it up to me to decide how to proceed. They even offered to send my x-rays (that they took for free) to another dentist if I preferred. I went with them and the experience was quick, nearly painless, and the results look amazing. I've avoided dentists for years, but once I get insurance, I may make this place my regular dentist.
Metta Yoga
Kelli Neil is a person that makes you EXCITED to go for your dental appointment. Her genuine care and always positive attitude + beautiful views to greenery & mountains make this more as a spa day. Thank you dr. Nielsen for cultivating such a great team and a beautiful environment.

Gloria Cadden
Love the staff at Life Smiles dentistry! Everyone is very friendly and efficient- all the dental hygienists are terrific! Just had my teeth super- cleaned by Hilary! Such a great experience!
Dorieen Coe
Today was my first appointment with life smiles , I couldn’t find my insurance policy because I just got it and I’m a new mom and was nervous about bringing my four month old who just got his shots in ! When I got there the front office ladies already found my insurance , and Meg held on to my son while I was in my appointment. That made my heart smile best customer service I’ve ever had at a dental office . This will be my new dental home they made me feel overly comfortable
Ashlan Hughes
Always enjoy my visit to Life Smiles Dental. The staff is so attentive, nice, and pleasant to be around. No matter if I am going in for a cleaning or dental procedure, they make it as comfortable as possible for all of their customers. I drive from North Peoria to visit this location and will continue to drive to the best dental office in the Greater Phoenix area!
Angela Abeler
Our family truly loves this office. They are very timely and caring. What we are most impressed with is their dedication to making you happy. I would personally say that everyone is a perfectionist in the office. It truly is the best dental office we have ever been to.
SadPug
Life Smiles was wonderful experience. The staff was friendly and nice and the atmosphere was soothing. I enjoyed watching nature itself during my appointments. It's better than watching a blank lifeless wall. I loved how I was able to watch TV during my appointment. Life Smiles was an amazing experience and I would recommend Life Smiles to everyone I know.
Must Be Marisa
(I gave 5 stars because they don't deserve less than a 90%, and 4 stars would be only an 80%. Even still, I'm leaving a good review so 5 stars is well deserved).
I can't complain about my visit at all. From the moment I called to schedule to the moment I left, everything went smoothly and I was treated very well. The receptionists are very nice and accommodating, especially Meg who has a very warm and comforting presence. The dental assistant was by far one of my favorite people there. And of course, Dr. Nielson was good, too. If you're looking for a conservative dentist with very steady hands, this man comes highly recommended. My dental problems are extensive, so I'm looking for a dental place to call home. I hope I've found that with Dr. Nielson! I plan on going back in for dental work in a week, so I will have a more fully developed opinion by then.
Dee Kelley
I was very skeptical at first when I was looking for a new dentist because Life Smiles had a perfect review rating on both Google and Yelp. I thought for sure the reviews had been forged. But after reading a few they seemed legitimate and I decided to give Life Smiles a try.
I am so glad I did! They deserve every perfect 5/5 star rating they have been given. Front desk staff is so courteous. The hygienists are kind, gentle and patient. Dr. Schmit was extremely sensitive to the fact that I had had a few bad dental experiences in that past. The fact that he really took the time to listen and cared about my concerns was very comforting.
I am so happy I found Life Smiles and have since brought in my daughter as well as referred you to a friend of mine.
Lexi McNevin
I could not recommend Life Smiles more! I’ve recommenced many people here over the years because they just take care of you. You can go in feeling confident they will listen and be thorough. And Maryellen is the BEST hygienist there is!
A H
Dr. Nielson and Dr. Schmidt are highly professional. Their entire staff is top notch, friendly and caring. Kelli is an amazing hygienist. She does a great job and is so much fun. With state of the art equipment, Dr. Neilson has straighten my teeth and replaced old filings. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care!
Matt Panos
One of my crowns became dislodged last night and I called and left a message. Neilsen‘s office got back to me immediately the next morning and got me right in there to fix the crown. Service was excellent, safety and hygiene were perfect and the office visit lasted just 30 minutes. A+
susan gallo
Hands down best dental practice I've ever been to. Staff is professional and friendly and Dr. Nielson is just fantastic. I have been to several dentists between CT and AZ and he is by far the best when it comes to his craft. He repaired a chip in my front tooth and you could never tell there was any work done. SO happy with it. I also had a pretty deep filling and it was the easiest filling I've ever had. The shot didn't hurt, I wasn't over numbed and my tooth feels great. He definitely has a gift! He's also has great bedside manner, especially to a spaz like myself :)
Eric Murray
Great experience.
I have had several dentists and none have been able to get everything right the way that Life Smiles does. They excel at making the dental visit experience as seamless as possible, e.g. minimal wait time, easy scheduling, ability to explain technical dental situations in common terms, making sure the patient is comfortable, a room to freshen up and brush teeth if you don't have a chance to do so beforehand, cocoa butter to help lips not dry out during cleaning. Thanks Dr. Nielson
Elwood Doughty
Love this place! Mya my dental hygienist is a joy and makes me look forward to going to the dentist! I highly recommend Life Smiles Dentistry
Ryan Severyn
Both dentists here are friendly and give you the best options for care. I’ve never had a bad experience here and have referred a few people over the years. Hygienists are great too. Whenever I’ve had to have injections there was never any pain. These people are pros. Love this office.
Mark Vladuchick
Both doctors are very caring and knowledgable. All of the hygienists have been very thoughtful and took their time cleaning and scraping. I've had a cavity filled and I have no complaints. They truly take care of their patients. The receptionists are very cheerful and schedule you as soon as they can fit you in. Loyal patient!
Lionell Harbison
I love the service and flexibility of scheduling. The staff and dentists are very professional. I had a major reconstruction and i am very satisfied with the work. Highly recommend!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jamey Gadoury
Another great experience! Friendly, efficient, prompt! Love that the staff has a morning meaning - focused on teamwork and getting the job done together. Thank you, Life Smiles!
Erika Snow
We love Life Smiles Dental Care! They have been taking care of my family's dental care for the past 5 years. The hygienist are kind and knowledgeable. I especially appreciate this while treating my three children. They actually look forward to going to the dentist! This might have something to do with the awesome treasure box, but I like to think that it is the positive experience that we all receive there from the staff and Dr. Nielson.
I am currently going through the 6 month smile braces program that Life Smiles offers and I am so thrilled with my results. I always knew that my teeth were crowded and that my front two teeth stuck out a little, but I had no idea what my smile potential really was. Now when I look back at pictures of myself before braces I can hardly believe the difference. I am so happy with my new smile and know that my teeth will be healthier as well. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care to anyone!
Little Dealer Little Prices
Super friendly and helpful staff. Very nice state of the art dental office. Had a bad experience when younger at the dentist, so avoided going to the dentist for a long time. Dr. Benson DDS listened to my concerns, explained all the options to make my visit easier and was able to complete my service quickly keeping stress to a minimum. Would highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care.
Robert Dresser
While visiting our son and his family, found out I had an absest tooth. I was referred to this dentist and the visit was fabulous. I had tooth extracted,and I felt so much better
It's been 2 days, no pain and itis rapidly healing. ,5 stars for sure
Kayla J
very happy with my results today and can’t wait to come back next week to finish my little cosmetic project. I had a very gummy smile and Dr Schmidt took care of that today, and I’m on cloud 9 with my “new smile” . I felt very comfortable in the office and the staff is so friendly. Highly recommend.
Judy Colonie
My first appointment went beautifully. I found the dentist and the other assistants and dental hygienist to all be quite wonderful and caring. They showed kind and definite concern for my feelings about the entire process -- from x-rays to discussion of the state of my teeth to the cleaning of my teeth. They gave me a discount on my initial cleaning and x-rays visit and provided a discount for the other work that needs to be done as well.
Stephanie Worrell
It was my first time there but it was a great experience. All the staff is very friendly. The office is nice and clean. I especially loved the dental hygienist Kelli. She was excellent. The dentist Dr Nielson was nice and took the time to explain different things to me. The staff was all very knowledgeable. Overall, would definitely recommend
Morgan Curley
I normally can’t stand going to the dentist because I’ve just always been one of those people that gets anxiety the minute I step into the office. But the staff here was the friendliest and most welcoming office I have ever been to. They take extra care to make you feel comfortable and were very accommodating. This will definitely be the only dentist I go to from now on.
judy greer
I am scared to death of dentists!! My first visit to Dr. Schmidt was very un scary. He made me feel very comfortable and it seemed that he genuinely cared about how I felt. I will be going back to him for my tooth extraction for sure. Thank you life smiles dental office for being so caring and understanding.
Shyam Venkat
Terrific visit again for my 6-month cleaning. Cassie was the first leftie who has cleaned my teeth. Thank you for your service
Dan Lundberg
Great Dentist. Dr. Nielson and his staff are top notch, tier 1, best in the business. High quality work, never tried to sell me "unnecessary dental work" like I have experienced at other dental offices.
Victoria Cavitt
Everyone at Life Smiles is so friendly. They are great to work with and provide excellent care. So glad I found this dentist office!

My experience at the Life Smiles Dental Care has always been a positive one. Kelly Neal is a "the best" hygienist ever. She is very professional and makes you feel special each and every time you see her. Heidi is also fantastic. Dr. Nielson is a great dentist. He is up to date on the latest techniques and procedures. My teeth are definitely in good hands.

I love this office! Everyone is so kind and happy to be there! They never over sell you and simply educate you and allow you to make decisions.
Steven Quisenberry
Always a friendly staff and clean office. They got me an appointment time that worked for me and took care of my dental needs right away. Dr. Nielsen is the best!!
Andrea Gjertsen
I have been going to Dr. Nielson for years and recently moved out of state. I’ve seen other dentists at my new home but none compare. When you find someone whose expertise you trust and have complete confidence in, you need to come back!Plus, the office staff, hygienists and assistants are the best!! Will be traveling many miles for dental care!

My husband and I have been going to see Dr. Nielsen for 15 years. Kelli is AMAZING, and we just love the team! I have never been a fan of seeing the dentist- and now I look forward to it! We moved to Mesa and still make the drive just to see them!
Mike Pedersen
Just had my first appointment with Dr. Nielson. By far the best dentist I've ever gone to. Will be bringing my entire family to see him after this. His staff was extremely friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The practice itself is beautiful! I give the location an A+++ as well. Being located in Phoenix, but what I would consider Scottsdale, his dental practice is near everything. Right off Tatum Blvd on Shea. He is not a high pressure dentist, but very thorough. He will show you everything going on in with your teeth, but you make the decision how to proceed. I highly recommend Life Smiles Dental Care!

It's been 5+ years since I've been to the dentist. I have always had severe anxiety about the dentist but when this place makes me forget about all my worries. From the front desk, hygenists and doctors, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is inviting and makes you feel at total ease. I am so happy I found this place. I would drive from anywhere to come here and have my teeth cleaned! Thank you so much for the amazing experience!
Scott Dresser
I have going to this office since we moved to Arizona almost 4 years ago. The staff is friendly and always in a great mood. The office is very nice and their customer service is fantastic. Dr Nielson is a great dentist and very trustworthy. He seems to have the patients best interest in mind and is very easy going. I do not have any complaints about my experience with their office. I would highly recommend it.
Allicia Roza-Carrozza
I have never had any dental work done before and was terrified! Dr. Nielson and his staff made me feel so at ease and comfortable. He did an amazing job, the office was very clean, and the front office staff was super friendly and helpful!
I would recommend this office to all my friends and family.....Thank you Life Smiles Dental Care!!!!

If you’re looking for a caring staff that always goes above & beyond the minimum required, and knowledgeable doctors that treat you more like a friend than a new patient, then this is the office you’ve been searching for!!

The Dental work that Dr. Nielson has done to myself has literally changed my life and the way I feel about myself.

Alex N
Im a new patient and just had my first appointment today. I’m someone who has high anxiety going to the dentist even fir a cleaning. I have extra sensitive teeth and Dr. Schmidt and Mya were amazing and patient in dealing with me. I went in knowing I’d most need a crown since I had lost a chinches of my back tooth.
Eric Rossell
Life Smiles has the best dentists and hygienists in AZ. Always friendly, gentle, and ready to treat their patients as individual people, not just another appointment. Thanks Team Life Smiles!

I never thought I would love going to the dentist! I look forward to my appointment every time at Life Smiles! Everyone is so nice and I love asking them questions on mouth care. They give great advice and are all extremely knowledgeable!
char Hatch
I took my three kids aged 3, 5 and 8 to get their teeth cleaned today. I was a little nervous since they previously went to a pediatric dentist. I wasn’t sure how kid friendly they were. My kids absolutely loved it and the dental hygienist and doctor Paul were amazing and so sweet with my young ones.
Lindsay Stevens
Kelli is an amazing hygienist. She is always careful, gentle, and thorough. The office is also very clean and front desk staff are very friendly.
Lexi McNevin
Hilary the dental hygienist is the best!! They are always on time and are extremely friendly and thorough. Highly recommend!
Donna Belgram
Mary Ellen is the best hygienist ever! Dr Nielson and his entire staff are top notch. It's the 1st time in my life, I like going to the dentist. Even though I have been going here for years, I was a little nervous due to Covid. I should have known better. Mary Ellen had 2 masks and a shield. The office was set up for social distancing. I felt very comfortable. Thank you!!!
Will Troia
The entire staff is friendly and does a great job of explaining every job they perform/offer. Nothing was left unanswered and it created a high quality patient experience.
Barbie G
Outstanding as always! The girls up front in scheduling were very accommodating as well as my Dentist. He was thorough and addressed the problem I was having with my tooth and we came up with a game plan for the treatment. Thank you!
Rebecca Calton
I recently went to Life Smiles for the first time and had a great experience. For several years I had noticed white spots on my front teeth, but had been very hesitant to get work done. I was concerned about keeping my natural-looking smile. Dr. Schmidt recommended a conservative option (bonding) and I couldn't be happier with the results! Dr. Schmidt is a great doctor and I appreciate how comfortable he helped me feel while getting this dental work done. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
April Anne
Doctor took time to listen to my concerns and made me feel at ease. The entire staff is so friendly and welcoming. We have since starting taking our entire family here. Even the little one who is scared of dentists likes coming here.
Liza Richards
LifeSmiles is the best dental office I’ve ever used. From hygienists to the dentist to the front office staff, they are professional, kind, and efficient. Their COVID precautions made me very comfortable, and the level of care is always top notch. I love LifeSmiles!
Sue Jacobs
Love Dr. Schmidt and his staff! They are all so professional and kind. They make going to the dentist painless as well! Would highly recommend Life Smiles to friends, family, and anyone else who needs a good dentist!
Josh Ransom
Usually going to the dentist can be a dreaded experience that makes anyone cringe and look for an excuse to avoid, enter Life Smiles. Life Smiles is a dentistry unlike any other that I have experienced before. The staff is always extremely warm, welcoming, and professional. Out of the many times I have visited I have never had an issue with appointments starting late or staff acting unprofessional. For these reasons Life Smiles is the only dentistry in the Valley my family chooses to use.
Cruz Serna
I always have a great experience here. They always make me feel relaxed at comfortable. The dentists are great and they explain everything well. The dental higenics do such a great job. Would definitely recommend Life Smiles to anyone.
Sheron Amiel
I was welcomed with kindness and a lovely tour of the practice. As a new patient the whole process was easy, my time was respected and I was treated with consideration for my individual needs. This was a very refreshing experience. I'm already scheduled for my teeth cleaning.:)
Daniel Walsh
Without a doubt the Best dental experience I have ever had! Dr. Neilson and his staff are the nicest, knowledgable people in the industry. With patient consideration at the top of their list they provide a service unmatched by any others. They are truly the BEST example of what dental professionals should be! I cannot thank them enough!
Anna Strow
Dr. Nielson and his staff are Top notch! They are all very professional, friendly, and on time. My teeth look and feel great after a cleaning and Dr. Nielson is up to date on all the latest advances in dentistry. I had no pain with a root canal he completed and he always has the best recommendations to maintain my healthy smile. I highly recommend this office.
Andreas Xagoraris
As always my friends at Life smiles have taken care of me and made me feel like family. Last patient of the day when everyone must have been tired yet I was greeted warmly and cared for like I was the only patient of the day. Dr Nielsen and his staff make every visit worthwhile.
Julie Lynch
I was very impressed with this office. The staff was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They worked as a team to efficiently move me through the appointment process without making me feel rushed. The dentist took his time to go over xrays and pictures and answered my questions completely. The dental hygienist was exceptionally gentile and my teeth feel great!
Ana Acevedo
I have seen my share of dental offices and Life Smiles has them beat hand down. Best I have ever experienced and I love that have flexible hours to meet everyone needs. Every employee treats you as if you are family. Dr. Nielson is excellent at what he does. Now that's what I call a great experience. I will forever be a patient at Life Smiles.
Diamonique Lewis
Mari explained everything so easily and helped me sign up for my care credit. Dr. Schmidt was so nice and put my mind at ease about my next procedure. This office is full of amazingly nice people. Can't say I'm excited about my root canal, but I am excited to see all the nice smiling faces.
Laura Brandao
I had a dental emergency while visiting from out of state and Life Smiles Dental was able to fit me in right away. Their care was gentle and I especially loved the fact that they took the time to introduce themselves and explain exactly what was going to happen. I would highly recommend Dr. Nielson & Life Smiles Dental Care.
Robin Goff
Amazing customer care. The entire team is a class act. Keri is so personable and Dr. Schmitt was very professional and answered all my questions. Myra did a wonderful job cleaning my teeth. I highly recommend this team for everyone's dental care.
Michelle Bahnfleth
This dental office is fantastic!! I have major anxiety when it comes to the dentist and they were extremely comforting. They are gentle, warm and passionate with what they do. I would give more stars if I could. Thank you Life Smiles
Darla Bodnar
My family has been going to LifeSmiles on Shea for years. I feel well cared for and the staff feels like my own family. I have had great results with veneers and with Invisalign. I highly recommend LifeSmiles for both adult and children dental care.
Kathy Hart
I can not remember a dental experience that compares to the care I have received at Life Smiles. I live out of state and had a dental emergency. Life Smiles was able to see me the day I called. The dentist laid out a plan that was long overdue for me. They are trying to work within the short time frame I have while I am in AZ. I so appreciate all of the trouble this office and the professionals who work there have gone to to accommodate an out-of-towner.
Karissa Gross
I had a wonderful experience for my new patient visit. Very staff member I met was friendly, professional, and organized and the office is beautiful. I loved Hilary my hygienist, Hiede my dental assistant, Mari at the front desk, and doctor Schmidt. Will definitely be back!
Debbie Laing
I first visited Life Smiles Dental when I was looking to have my teeth whitened. I have suffered from tetracycline staining for years and have never found a product that works with this type of staining. When I first met with Dental Assistant and Whitening Specialist Heide, she listened to my concerns and helped me understand the product that would work best for me. The results I achieved were better than any whitening I had ever experienced. In addition to my great whitening results, I also received one of the best dental cleanings I’ve ever had. Dental Hygienist Maryellen was very gentle and thorough. The front office staff at Life Smiles is always friendly and helpful. I have now made Life Smiles Dental my permanent dental “home”.
Ann Tellez
It was my first time to their office. Everyone was amazing! I will be proud to call this my new dental home! Dr Schmidt was awesome and very patient. He helped me with suggestions for future dental work! I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a dentist! 😊 …
Lisa Kelley
I relocated to the area from Tennessee and needed to establish with a new dentist. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. I was able to easily make an appointment within a week of my first inquiry. The technology employed at the office is advanced. Dr. Neilson was very thorough and explained everything along the way. Lindsay, the hygienist, was contentious and extremely pleasant. I have already made my next cleaning appointment. I recommend this team to everyone.
Mark Nielson
My wife and I have been in the office for teeth whitening and were thrilled with the results. My teenage daughter had one permanent tooth that wasn't fully developed and Dr. Nielson was able to do make it blend seamlessly with her other teeth after a quick cosmetic procedure. She's so happy with her new and improved smile! The staff is friendly, the office is beautiful, and Dr. Nielson is experienced and skilled.
Michael Schnitzer
Professional, knowledgeable, courteous and kind staff and dentist. Highly recommended.
Colleen Benevedes
Everything you need in dental care! Dr. Paul and the entire staff makes you feel comfortable and don't pressure you to get any extras and work with your budget. I have lots of anxiety but it went so smoothly and quickly that I was happily surprised! Meg is very welcoming as soon as you walk in. I highly recommend this practice!!
ROBIN Paxson
Can't say enough about Life Smiles Dental. Jackie is amazing. She does such a great job cleaning my teeth! Then there's the whole office staff! Everyone always greets you like you are their favorite!!
Cheryl Cole
The front desk is always friendly. I have always gone here because of the fantastic service Kelli my dental hygienists always gives. She is very gentle and caring. All the staff is. I would highly recommend going to Life Smiles.
michelle marx
I'm very happy that I googled a new dentist by stars and number of reviews. They exceeded my expectations with professionalism, were personable and explained everything so well. I feel like I found my forever dentist! Bonus - they are only 5 minutes from my house but I would drive 60 if they moved! 😁 …
Laura Fugate
12/18/20Still by far the best dental experience. Cleanings are easy and Hilary is a joy!
Hilary is awesome. She makes me feel at easy during my cleanings. I don’t like the high powered water pick for cleanings and she makes the process quick and checks on me periodically to make sure I am comfortable.
R Sanford
You can’t really ask for more. Everyone in this office is beyond professional and polite. My wife and I have gone here for years. The dental care is always the best. We have never ever been pressured or up sold. We feel the staff acts with the highest integrity and care for you as a patient. Thank you
Nathen Ray
If you haven’t been to Life Smiles and met Dr. Schmidt, you need to ASAP. Nobody in the Valley cares more about you as a person and your health than this man and his crew. Also, Dental Hygienist, Jackie, is such a delight to be around and is one of the best in the industry. Be aware though..these people are in high demand, so you’ll need to book well in advance. Absolutely love this place and won’t go anywhere else.
Cathy Vendegna
Dr Nielson is the best dentist ever!! His staff is amazing and they took very good care of me today. They got me in on short notice and went above and beyond what I was scheduled for. My cleaning was great and my teeth are sparkling. Dr Nielson did an amazing job replacing some old cavities and fixing a few front teeth. I love my smile! Thank you Dr Nielson and staff!!
Kimberly McGinnis
I have been going to LifeSmiles since the birth of this business. I have always had a wonderful experience and the staff treats customers with respect. Kelly is fabulous. She is very gentle with my sensitive teeth and always inquires about my well being. I appreciate the welcomeness that I am greeted with every time I walk into the doors of LifeSmiles. Thank you for providing excellent customer service each and every time!
I would highly recommend this practice to any individual or family that are looking for a highly skilled staff that cares for their patients.
Jessica Henderson
This is the best dentistry practice. Everyone is professional and friendly and it’s convenient that they will work with you on payments for costly procedures that are not covered by insurance. My husband and I both love this office. We highly recommend them.
Taudra Davis
Amazing and professional dental practice. Best I have ever experienced. Every employee treats you as if you are family. Dr. Nielson is excellent at what he does. I find my self falling asleep in the chair every time!! Now that's what I call a great experience. I will forever be a patient at Life Smiles.
Jennifer Oaf
I really love the staff they were very prompt In getting all of us checked in. All of the staff made me feel at home and they were very nice . And the dentist was nice and understanding to my needs if I needed to stop he understood. And I was surpass to the flexibility of financing and payment arrangements
Pete King
These guys are out of this world! Where else can you find incredible professionalism, unbelievable friendliness, and quality caring throughout an entire company organization? Like so many of us, I have never enjoyed going to the dentist. The ENTIRE STAFF makes me feel at ease, comfortable with the care I'm getting, and downright appreciated BOTH as a patient and as a fellow human being. Let's face it -- nobody says, "Wow, I get to go to the dentist today!" Well, this group does everything they can to make you ALMOST want to say that. These people are truly caring and sincere individuals!
Juliete, Checker & Yankee's Mommy “Juliete101”
Dr. Schmidt and his assistant were absolutely amazing...they made me feel real comfrotable, because of course I'm a big baby when it comes to the dentist. he did an amazing job with my extractions!! I absolutely love him and Life Smiles Dental care.
Katie Walker
The staff, dentists, and hygienists are all wonderful. They are so professional and friendly. They are practically family. You'll always be treated honestly and considerately. Best dentist practice in the Valley!

I'm new to the practice. Everyone I have met at Life Smiles has made me feel so comfortable. They have responded promptly to my needs with professionalism, skill and kindness.
